As part of the Being Human Festival and the 175th anniversary of the Belfast School of Art two events were co-produced by Black Box Projects, Rogue Encounters and Bbeyond performance art collective. The events celebrated everyone’s capacity to take action and be part of a social movement with art that was off the wall and in the centre of things. The events were a call to action by the disabled community to take up space and explore diversity and creative community making.
The Being Human Festival is the UK’s national festival of the humanities. A celebration of humanities research through public engagement, it is led by the School of Advanced Study at the University of London, the UK’s national centre for the pursuit, support and promotion of research in the humanities. The festival works in partnership with the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the British Academy to support humanities public engagement in the UK.
