Stories of Place

Stories of Place is a space to imagine, be inspired, and take collective action.

Stories of Place draws on collage, photos, stories, poetry, sounds, maps, research from the past, present and imagined futures of Dudley High Street. Inspired by these stories, we prototype experiments together to bring us closer to futures where we can flourish as part of our planet.

Stories of Place is part of Dudley People's School for Climate Justice and a research project called Co-creating Flourishing Futures. This welcome pack provides more information on what is being researched and how you could be involved.

Stories of Place is led by Time Rebel Holly Doron, who is also a member of the CoLab Dudley team.
Some sessions will be led by other Stories of Place Co-creators.

How you can join in

Join us on the first Wednesday of every month at 201a High Street in Dudley (opposite the big red Bostin sign). Sessions are always free. Each session will be different and will evolve with our collective ideas and action, but there will always be an option for you to join a guided activity or have time to experiment with your ideas.

You don’t have to come to every session. We all have different commitments and our energy changes throughout the year. If you make one session and can’t return for a few months, you will always be welcome and won’t feel left behind.

See dates and times below.
Please sign up to sessions you’d like to join on Eventbrite

We want to make Stories of Place as inclusive and accessible as possible so please let Holly know how you can be made to feel welcome. Unfortunately, our space on the High Street only has a toilet accessible by stairs. However, if this would make it difficult for you to join in, please let Holly know and they will do their best to find another venue.

Stories of Place features in the chronicles of our 100 year cultural strategy in action
