THANK YOU all so much for gathering last Saturday at . Thank you to Helen and team for such a wonderful hosting.

It was incredible to celebrate the 13th birthday of Procreate Project and this new birth, and to be surrounded by a supportive online and in person presence for it.

The Integrated Care Toolkit is now online at toolkit.procreateproject.com. The download link for the Integrated Care Handbook is working, and you can use the Download page to claim it. A special thank you to the designer and project and web developers and

Please do send any feedback you might have. I hope this resource accompanies you well in your current and future creative ventures.

📍Please remember to add your projects to the Map. There is also the possibility to include past projects, with a filter that allows them to be recognised and found. This was an important layer to add, to make sure that through this map of acknowledgement and connection, and despite the interrupted history of care and feminist practices, past efforts are reconciled with current ones.

It is important to me to create a sense of continuity, rather than remaining in the perpetual “first and only ever” attitude to culture making.

So if you have, or know of, past and present projects that have worked structurally to support artists and audiences with caring responsibilities, please add them to the network.

Any questions, notes, wishes, please email.

Stay connected, love
Dyana

The Toolkit offers guiding principles and practical resources, including examples of alternative models and how to integrate them into public programmes, residencies, presentations and more. It is designed as a generative resource, open to adaptation and translation across contexts.

✨ Hi! I am Dyana Gravina, founder of Procreate Project and writer of the Integrated Care Toolkit, to be released on Saturday 18 April. Procreate Project began in 2013 as a grassroots arts organisation working towards systemic change and equity for artists who are mothers and primary caregivers.

✧ This Toolkit is grounded in 13 years of hands on work and lived experience as an artist, parent, and migrant in the UK.

✧ Far from an individual process, it has unfolded through conversations, encounters, and time spent together.

✧ Many of these pages began in my living room and online, shaped through dialogue with critical friends and I am grateful for their questions and perspectives. They include Maddalena Fragnito, Katie Deepwell, FRANK with Fatoş Üstek and Celina Loh, Ama Josephine Budge, Alex Martinis Roe, Elisa Fontana, Hettie Judah, Jo Harrison, and former P*P director Paola Lucente

→ During the event I will introduce the Toolkit website and guide people through its areas and resources, before opening up the conversation to those in the room, collaborators, and audiences joining online.

🌍 ALL (ages) welcome! Together with Stefania Zocco, we are designing a Family Room in the main Assembly gallery on the ground floor, where the different sections of the Toolkit will be translated into interactive creative play activities for all ages. Doors open at 1.45 for a 2PM START.

✨ I hope you can join us!
