The Working Together Toolkit shares learning and resources that anyone can use in their own projects. It aims to support people to work together to make art, explore exhibitions and have creative conversations. The toolkit was conceieved as a digital resource and was designed and built by Nikki Hafter.
The Working Together project was a partnership between:
-
Brighton CCA, a gallery space acting as a centre for contemporary arts at the University of Brighton's Grand Parade Campus (2019-2023)
- Grace Eyre, a charity working with people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health issues in Brighton & Hove
-
The University of Brighton, a centre for education defined by the four core values of inclusivity, sustainability, creativity and partnership.
Working Together part 1 took place in 2023. Collaborators co-learned and co-created artwork in response to Brighton CCA’s exhibitions during a series of workshops that resulted in the first version of the toolkit. Sadly, the Brighton CCA gallery closed soon after.
In 2024, Working Together part 2 will see collaborators from University of Brighton and Grace Eyre place the toolkit in dialogue with other galleries and creative institutions to continue its development as a resource.
