Village 101 has emerged out of the necessity to rejuvenate local communities and culture as a whole.
We have been living in times of unparalleled disconnection, with COVID exacerbating issues of social inequality and feelings of alienation

The pandemic forced us into isolation and ground our artistic institutions to a halt.
We have been starved of our connection to each other and the therapeutic and cathartic benefits of art.

Amidst the complex and unpredictable cultural landscape of our times, where great art is more vital than ever, it is crucial that we channel the raw power of creativity into re-imagining and re-making the world - into establishing genuine impact.

Workshop at village 101

why workshop here?

We host events and workshops that facilitate learning and connection.

We encourage artists and community leaders to share their wisdom in our space with regular free workshops for 16-25-year-olds.

We host regular opportunities for people to socialise, release, relax, and enjoy each other with culturally enriching and mind-freeing events.

Our first cultural festival 'Legacy' is being organised and will take place soon! Just one of many exciting events on the horizon.

These are important opportunities for us to showcase the incredible talent and rich connections we have nurtured since our conception

Changemaker Workshops

Village 101’s change maker programme is designed to uplift and empower the next generation of young artists to become leaders and innovators by identifying and leveraging core strengths and building strategies for community resilience. We help participants to engage in critical thinking and develop a broader perspective of their social and political impact.

Our workshop(s) explores the use of interdisciplinary arts-based practices, aimed to inform the curriculum, challenge social structures and limiting belief systems.  You will gain an understanding of how art can be used as an advocacy tool to raise awareness and create lasting positive change.

By creating safe spaces for unrepresented people to express themselves, we’re able to uncover hidden potential, unearth talent and support it to flourish. Our core values are rooted in harnessing creativity for social change.
