We’re working to take the Our Positive Future event on tour! This follows our hopeful, imagination-filled launch event in St Thomas in June 2025 – check out our webpage for all the amazing outputs from the day!

With thanks to the Creative Arc Commissions we delivered our first pilot event in Exwick, Exeter, with our collaborators Bob WalleyKatie Villa and Micha Colombo, along with Community Builder Rachel Gillmore.

We hope this is the first step towards making a touring event programme! Read our recent article for the Charles Stanley Charities In Focus series about the project – and get in touch if you’d like to explore bringing the Our Positive Future event to your community!

Exwick Event

Our first event was in Exwick, Exeter on Saturday 7 February 2026!

We brought a daytime drop-in event packed with hands-on science & creative activities (including Exwick’s own giant collective mural)…

… and an evening event for local residents and changemakers to put the ideas from the day into action.

Check out the amazing photos from the day below, and this incredible poem for Exwick, “Unplanned”, by Creative in the Corner Micha Colombo!

Do you like the look of this event? Love the outputs? Let us know! We’d love to take it on tour for more people to get involved, and your feedback would be invaluable!


This project was made possible through the support of the Creative Arc programme during 2023-2026 – an initiative funded by the University of Exeter, Exeter City Council and the UK government through the Shared Prosperity Fund.
