SUMMARY:Exploring Strengths in Autism - A Zine Making Workshop Study
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition features a collection of Zines created by 18 autistic young people who participated in the “Exploring Character Strengths in Autism – Zine Making Workshop Study”\, led by Dr. Jiedi Lei’s research team at the University of Oxford. This research study focused on helping autistic children and young people challenge unhelpful stereotypes associated with how autism is portrayed through popular film / TV and media\, and to change the narrative by recognising their personal unique strengths and abilities through exploring Character Strengths.   \nCharacter Strengths make up 24 universal traits that we all hold (e.g.\, Bravery\, Creativity\, and Kindness) and motivate us to take action in everyday life. All young people created Zines – a do-it-yourself publication – that showcased their individual stories of exploring strengths use in everyday life. Guided by young people’s voices and their Zine creations\, we hope that visitors will learn about autism through a strengths focused lens to celebrate individual differences in neurodiversity.   \nThis work is supported by the Public and Community Engagement with Research (PCER) Fund at the University of Oxford and The Paul Foundation.

SUMMARY:Power Station- Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:kickstarting a solar-powered energy revolution. \nInspired by lockdown mutual aid initiatives\, artist-activists Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn decided to turn their street into an energy-generating powerhouse – a prototype for a new way of living\, with the hope of galvanising a wider push towards sustainable alternatives.  \nDirected by the duo\, POWER STATION charts their turbulent journey\, from pitching the idea to their neighbours and sleeping on the roof of their home\, to raising finance and launching a bid for a Christmas number one single.  \nBy turns funny and heartwarming\, Powell and Edelstyn’s film is a vibrant portrait of their local neighbourhood\, and a charming testament to the power of art in changing minds about what could be possible. \nThis is a Collaboration of Low Carbon Oxford North & Makespace Oxfordshire.

This session is designed for complete beginners as well as the creatively curious. All materials are provided\, there’s no dress code (other than “comfortable”)\, and the atmosphere is friendly\, unhurried\, and encouraging\, think creativity\, conversation\, and the satisfying joy of making something with your hands. \nWhether you’re looking for a thoughtful gift\, a mindful morning\, or just an excuse to try something new in good company\, this is a lovely way to spend a Spring morning. \nSpaces are limited\, so booking ahead is very much advised.
