Harry Baker

ADVENTurous: Mike Frost, Ann Pettifor, Ann Morisy, Abdul-Rehman Malik, Ruth Valerio, Harry Baker, Iain Archer, Hope&Social

An inaugural one-day festival of ideas, artistry, spoken word and live music.

In the midst of struggling global economies, political transition and the apparent end of the world (according to the Mayan calendar at least!), the Christian season of Advent can be viewed as a sign of new arrivals, a world re-imagined, cultures disrupted and paradigms well and truly shifted.

Bringing together thinkers, activists and artists from different faith traditions (and none) for a day of exploration, debate and wonder, ADVENTurous is an event hosted jointly by Greenbelt and Union Chapel, drawing on a number of creative partners from a range of different networks – all with an interest in trying conspire hopefully towards a better tomorrow.

As well as contributions from renowned thinkers and speakers Mike Frost, Ann Pettifor, Ann Morisy, Abdul-Rehman Malik and Ruth Valerio, there will be artistry woven throughout the set-piece talks, panels and debate from Harry Baker by day, followed by an evening of great musicality with Iain Archer and Hope & Social.

And as if that wasn’t enough to wow your senses, there will also be a great visual arts exhibition hung around the venue.
