we create st peter's & st paul's
We Create is an arts action group that formed in 2016. It is a collaborative
partnership between Hardwick Gallery (University of Gloucestershire) and
residents in the communities of St Peter’s and St Paul’s (Cheltenham), in
association with Take A Part. We Create work together to share time, skills and
resources, co-commissioning ambitious projects and public events with artists
and allies, and people that live, work and study in the area. The group
incorporated as We Create Cheltenham CIC in 2020. We aim to stimulate interest
and understanding of the rich heritage of St Peter’s and St Paul’s, to connect
residents, and to catalyse opportunities for people to engage with creativity.
In our projects we aim to minimise their environmental and human costs through
responsible guardianship of the planet and its resources, respect for our
communities, and care for the people we work with. We work towards environmental
improvement and net zero carbon emissions for our projects by learning about and
exploring alternatives to mass produced and harmful materials.
