ATLA is a creative community. We are teachers, artists, researchers and community organisers with a passion for the necessity of collaboration. We believe that everyone has the potential and the right to imagine better futures, and to bring these into reality.
We host creative spaces and build projects using film, writing, data, visual arts, gaming, gardening, VR/AR and music.
Our services extend to workshops, retreats, creative programmes and community led research projects customised to your needs, along with online classes and mentoring.
We love seeing people step back from their everyday experiences and shift their perspective on everything from food systems to making art, from green spaces to community organising.
From here we help people identify alternative ways of interpreting the past, present, and future to empower change and build their communities.
So if you, like us strive to build alternative ways of thinking, learning and acting then get in touch… we’re lovely.
