Small Steps… Big Ideas: Compassion in Politics Visioning Workshop

We all know and feel that the political system is broken – or at least, it isn’t working as well as it should be. But what would a better or new one look like? We’re going to use this exciting opportunity to map out a new vision for our political system and how we will get to it.

Part of the Conway Hall Hub Small Steps… Big Ideas, a day of rousing talks, vital debates and thought-provoking exhibitions.

Part of Bloomsbury Festival 2019

—

Established in 2006, Bloomsbury Festival is a creative explosion of arts, culture and science.  For five days each October, the streets, parks, museums, galleries, laboratories and public and private buildings of this vibrant cultural quarter play host up to 130 events which attract a significant audience from across London and beyond.

With a unique blend of academic institutions, businesses, cultural organisations and diverse communities, Bloomsbury has been a catalyst for ideas that have had impact across the world for hundreds of years.  Bloomsbury Festival celebrates contemporary Bloomsbury; a hotbed of creativity and pioneering development which has one of the youngest and most diverse populations in the country.

The Festival works with many large and small partners to create and deliver its annual programme.  More than simply a showcase for the area, instead Bloomsbury Festival acts as a catalyst bringing together artists and academics, scientists and dancers, musicians, publishers and school pupils to make new projects and to inspire and learn from each other.

Outside the Festival period, Bloomsbury Festival delivers community engagement and arts projects across the year. These include it’s pioneering project, Festival in a Box, which takes artists into the homes of people living with dementia to provide life enhancing and joyful cultural experiences for people who are often lonely and isolated.

Above all, Bloomsbury Festival aims to be enlivening, engaging, entertaining, and fun!

We are committed to promoting inclusive practice at Conway Hall. Due to the constraints of our historic building, there is currently no step-free access to the Library. Please see our Access and Visitor Information for further accessibility information or contact us at Librarian@conwayhall.org.uk. We vary the location of our events between the Library and other ground level rooms, and are working to ensure that everyone is able to attend all our events in the future.
