11.01.2022 During these restricted times, ACAC has remained empty, quiet, still. In the coming months well slowly and thoughtfully re-enliven the space with creativity once more. But were not rushing. Considering one step at a time. Making sure people are safe. Picking up things as we can manage them. And asking ourselves important questions about what weve been learning from these times... What new stories will emerge from this blank page?... I can hear the sound of Possibility.... Helen
