Our commonwealth is an emerging community organization striving to foster conversation and connection through the arts. Our current series, “Another way”, invites participants to imagine the future we want to see through creative writing and storytelling. How do we better care for ourselves, each other + the planet? What would that look and feel like in 5, 10, 20 years and beyond?

We are collections of our lived experiences, and it is through understanding ourselves and relating to others that we can create new solutions. Community challenges affect each of us differently, and imaging solutions collectively ensures ideas could exist in practice.

Our goal is to foster community and connection while empowering participants to actively engage in conversations we may only discuss in our echo chambers.
