The Artful Activist is a creative workshop designed for artists, creative professionals, industry changemakers, and music lovers who want to make a meaningful contribution to the climate and social justice movement.

We recently piloted the evolved version of the training at theWe Are Warming Up Festival at Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam.
The response was incredibly positive: people left feeling connected, uplifted, and inspired to take action from a place of creativity and strength.
Whether you’re new to activism or already deeply involved, the training helps you (re)connect to the “why” beneath your actions and find your most natural and magnetic way to create change.
We offer both online and in-person sessions.
The workshop can be adapted for festivals, hubs, creative communities, and organisational teams.
If you'd like to experience the training yourself, host it for your community, or explore how it can support your organisation, we’d love to connect.
