On Saturday 11 October at 2:30 pm, the Attenborough Arts Centre hosts a powerful creative gathering inspired by Nina Simone’s legendary anthem Four Women. This multidisciplinary workshop, led by MULTiTRiBE — a collective of visionary artists including Mellow Baku, Louise Katerega, Linda Bradshaw, Leah Golde, and women from the wider diasporic community — is an invitation to reframe, reclaim, and uplift.
Through creative writing, movement, and music, participants will confront and transform the stereotypes that have long shadowed Black women, instead invoking archetypes of strength, resilience, and possibility. Rooted in cultural practices of honouring ancestry, re-imagining futures, and healing traditions, the session becomes more than a workshop — it is an act of creative resistance and communal empowerment.
This space is open to Black and Brown women/womxn, offering a safe circle for expression, storytelling, and shared discovery.
Later that evening, at 7:30 pm, the doors open to all with a free public sharing of the work, presented alongside Vidal Montgomery’s screening of Mad About the Boy. It is here that private reflection expands into public conversation, extending the resonance of the day into the night.
