Creative Bubbles

Creative Bubbles is a community of support for creatives, led by creatives.

In early 2022 Wilson’s Republic teamed up with the arts and creative development team at Kirklees Council to prototype a creative-led support network called Creative Bubbles. Participants loved it. It gave them a chance to share experiences and learn how other creatives practice their craft and run businesses. It was cathartic, fun, informative and inspiring.

We also discovered a lot about our creative community in Kirklees. A summary of our findings can be found in this report.

“…there’s only been a handful of us in each bubble, but that tiny little sense of a community group, that real mix and fusion of people as well, who I wouldn’t have even known about necessarily unless we’d been on these calls has been great"

“I think it’s nice for me because it’s all confidence building and it’s really good to have a space where we can talk. And things that everyone is saying is helping me along the process.”
