June was an exceptionally busy travel month for ICAF, as the core team – Jasmina, Anamaria and Amy – travelled to Singapore for eight days to celebrate and attend our first ever international hub gathering event: ICAF Hub Singapore ‘The Gathering’.
We had a momentous time at The Gathering, attending lectures, workshops, special interest circles and performances. We were grateful to meet and exchange with community arts practitioners from across the Asian Pacific, learning more about how they work with their communities in their local contexts.
The programme also included a day-long context programme that took us to different locations in Singapore as well as a nearby island to experience the food, culture, community organising, and contexts that make up the beautiful and diverse country.
We wish to extend a heartfelt thank you to the entire Drama Box team for organising and executing such a special event.
