URBAN WILDERNESS CIC
joy, creativity, connection
We run a regular, free to access arts programme at The Moony Club, our ex-shop unit in Longton Exchange Shopping Centre.
An Artist-led program of talks, screenings, and creative workshops radically repositioning our relationship with nature
In the Balance takes place every second Thursday of the month, 7pm - 9pm
A monthly club for those who love film and want to build a community for women-led cinema in Stoke-on-Trent.
Each month, we screen a film directed by a woman. We are trans and non-binary inclusive. After the screening we invite everyone to join a discussion. Each session includes an info sheet to provide a little more context about the film and director. You are welcome to watch the film and leave, but we’d love you to stay for the discussion.
Sign up to the mailing list to join the club. Feminist Film Club is screened every last Thursday of the month at 7:30pm.
Photo Club is a space for photographers and those interested in photography to develop skills together, share inspiration, talk through challenges, and explore the power of visual storytelling
Every third Thursday of the month, 7pm - 8:30pm
