On 22 December 2023, ARTE Music Academy in Nicosia hosted the presentation of ARTiculate, creating an evening that felt truly full—emotionally rich, warm, and deeply rewarding. The event brought together friends, collaborators, students, and guests who shared in the joy and emotion of celebrating a project dedicated to creativity, expression, and democratic engagement. It was a night that reminded us of the power of connection and the importance of coming together through art.

On 9 November 2023, the University of Granada opened its doors for the presentation of the book ARTiculate. The event was filled with joy, emotion, and a deep sense of fulfilment, as participants, students, and guests gathered to celebrate a project that places art and expression at the center of democratic participation. The space itself became a meeting point of creativity and reflection, highlighting the transformative power of artistic engagement.

In November 2022, our Creative Writing Workshops took a new leap—online. What began as a digital transition quickly became an inspiring space where young writers explored one of the most urgent issues of our time: climate change. Guided by local authors, participants dove into structured writing activities that encouraged them to reflect on humankind’s collective responsibility for the planet.

Highly motivated mentors, enthusiastic young participants, and a city where inspiration awaits in everything seen [and unseen], were the elements of our workshops’ success. Designed to engage, connect, and empower ARTiculate’s workshops in creative writing, ceramic art, and the visual arts provided an alternative platform for our young participants from the University of Granada and Room for Art to express their views on matters affecting them.

The kickoff meeting for the project took place in Nicosia on 28 and 29 of May 2022. During the two working days, productive discussions between the participants set the foundations for effective project management, which is instrumental to the project’s success.
