Creating better cities together.
Friday September 25, 2026 2:30pm - 3:45pm CEST
How do people develop a sense of belonging in the city? This interactive workshop invites participants to explore this question through the creation of collective textile maps inspired by the Latin American tradition of arpilleras (hand-stitched artworks used to tell personal and community stories). Rather than drawing conventional maps, participants will use fabric, thread, and simple craft materials to represent meaningful places, daily routes, memories, and encounters that shape their relationship with urban spaces. Through this creative process, participants will reflect on how belonging is experienced differently depending on personal backgrounds, everyday practices, and social connections.
As the session progresses, individual textile pieces will be assembled into a collaborative mosaic that visualizes multiple experiences of the same city and highlights the diversity of urban lives. Participants will gain hands-on experience with an arts-based participatory method and explore how creative practices can support placemaking, storytelling, inclusion, and community-building. No artistic experience is required, just your curiosity and a willingness to share, listen, and create together!
