Exciting news! We've joined with Agency of None, Biome Collective, Bit Loom, tialt & Very Evil Demons to launch a new collaborative workspace!
We're excited about what Hapworks_Studios can demonstrate for collective, visible creative infrastructure in Dundee & hope to welcome you to the space soon:
The Fabric: Creating Care cohort is made up of young people, creative practitioners, and youth & healthcare workers.
Together we'll be collectively reimagining youth mental health in Dundee, exploring new possibilities grounded in care, creativity and collective responsibility.

We’re so excited to begin our Fabric: Creating Care journey!
At our first session, the group explored creative expression & emotional literacy in a day filled with inspiring spaces, playful activities, & creative reflection.
Artist Anna Rooney reflects on her experience of the day in a new blog:
Join us on Wed 3 June for Tending To/gether – a free, one-day participatory forum for anyone interested in collective ways of working.
We’ll be using the day to champion the intrinsic value of creative networks, bringing folks together from across Scotland to connect, share & exchange knowledge.
The continuing instability of creative space infrastructure remains a prominent issue for many of Scotland’s creative communities.
But is the proliferation of meanwhile spaces an adequate solution or simply one of the only available options for creative practitioners in need of long-term space?
We're excited to be partnering with Culture for Climate Scotland to bring their next Green Tease event to Dundee!
Join us on Tue 31 March to explore the intersections between art practice, climate change & mental health – hearing from creative practitioners who embed climate & care in their work.
What are the opportunities and challenges of temporary spaces for creative communities? Join us on Thu 19 March for a free workshop and panel event exploring meanwhile spaces in Dundee!
