Chatterbox / The Healing Project
The Healing Project is delighted to have been awarded a grant from the Welsh Government to deliver a series of community workshops running from January to March 2026.
These workshops will celebrate the rich cultural diversity of Wales, bringing together people from a wide range of backgrounds in a welcoming and creative environment.
Women and young girls from the community are invited to take part in a series of eight workshops, where participants will work collaboratively to create handmade floor cushions. Throughout the sessions, attendees will learn and explore a variety of creative techniques, including pattern drawing, batik, screen printing, and embroidery.
To ensure the workshops are accessible and inclusive, refreshments will be provided at each session, and bus tickets are available for anyone who requires support with travel.
Feedback from participants attending the first session highlighted how relaxing and enjoyable they found the experience, reflecting the calming and supportive atmosphere the workshops aim to create.
If you would like to attend, please book a space via email: nasima@madeinroath.com
When booking spaces, include your name and contact details and whether you require a bus ticket for your travels.
Chatterbox is open to all Muslim Women Artists who are looking to develop a network and find a space to share creative skills. It includes a whatsapp group, to share creative opportunities, and ad hoc creative sessions. Chatterbox meets in 1a Inverness Place, or online. It is run and supported by Nasima.
The Healing Project came out of Chatterbox, when members wanted a specific place to process events in Palestine. The group collectively holds space, and makes work around the process of healing together. It is supported by Nasima, and meets both online and in person. In 2024 The Healing Project held an exhibition of work at g39 Gallery.
