Exploring creative community engagement strategies

New Dialogue is exploring creative community engagement strategies to open up welcoming and accessible conversations.

New Dialogue, the home of Healthwatch Kingston, is exploring ways to engage local residents through creative, participatory workshops called 'make your mark, have your say'. 

The creative engagements invite participants to contribute to large-scale paintings by making their mark while opening up conversations about their needs and the barriers they face. 

This approach builds on a short-term pilot in East London, where over 300 attendees contributed to a community artwork, pictured above.
