Over the past year, we’ve been running workshops, gathering stories, sharing experiences, and research from people affected by the intersection of neurodiversity and creativity, in both positive and challenging ways. The goal was to highlight how socio-economic conditions can strongly influence the outcomes for people on the neurodivergent spectrum.
Brave New Brain brought together artists, neurodivergent creatives, and community members for a powerful week of exhibitions, performances, talks, and workshops at House of Annetta in May 2025. From spoken word and film screenings to collaborative installations and a book launch, the project celebrated neurodiversity through art, dialogue, and shared experience.
