there will be tomorrows

At a time when contemporary crises are accumulating and accelerating, There Will Be Tomorrows aims to establish a site of active hope and resistance. TWBT will bridge arts and activism by stimulating experiments in radical imagination and building a commons for post-capitalist skills and knowledge. Its community will work together to model ideas and values that offer a basis for liveable futures: alternatives to oppressive capitalist systems.

We invite you to join and help shape this collective. You’ll both participate in and also potentially lead practical workshops addressing the themes of post-capitalist desire, liveable futures and social sufficiency. Via practice-based, collective research and the re-imagination of societal structures, TWBT aims eventually to evolve a programme of collective practical actions that address specific needs of local people and local ecosystems.

Our meetings will last up to three hours and take place every other week. We’ll frequently invite guests and be open to new members, so the group will expand and contract in size across the project’s year-long duration. We’ll organise our activities collectively, with members proposing workshops, discussions, reading groups, screenings, creative experiments, and more.

Topics that we may encounter include:

// Collective care // Growing food // Collective ownership // Alternative economies // Climate and ecological justice // Community energy projects // Universal Basic Income // Decolonisation // Post-consumer art and leisure // Mental health under (post-)capitalism // Speculative fiction // Freedom from work // Post-fossil and post-capitalist imagining //
