Creative Writing Night

[The following activity will take place in the Grand Café. Participation is optional. The café will remain open to (other) café visitors.] Join change.ink’s Free Writing Night to explore your creative side and dedicate an evening to just writing. This is an open space to work on your writing, connect with others, and experiment with your creativity. Change.ink will bring the pens and paper, and write the prompts to inspire you. Just show up and create, no pressure. The mission of change.ink is to make art accessible to all, providing a welcoming space for everyone to create. They want to break down the barriers that leave art, music, and literature strictly within elite circles.
Join the first Free Writing Night to explore your creative side and dedicate an evening to writing. This is an open space to work on your writing, connect with others, and experiment with your creativity!

Ground Rules

This is an inclusive and safe space for all backgrounds, genders and ethnicities. Although there will be background music and chatter from other guests, please keep quiet at the writing table to allow for concentration. During the chat breaks, remember to be respectful of all participants. Change.ink wants to create an environment that allows everyone to be vulnerable and authentic. Join them if you’re ready to explore this side of you!

About change.ink

change.ink aims to make art accessible for all by bringing down financial barriers that hinder creative expression in the Dutch society. How can we tackle social issues, global challenges, and future uncertainties that gloom over our generation without being able to express freely?
change.ink has two goals:
1. Support creative expression for personal & societal change, creating a platform for accessible arts
2. Provide a creative third place at night-time, an alternative and community-oriented space to exist for free
