When Worlds Collide
When Worlds Collide is a groundbreaking community arts programme that delves into the profound connections between humans and animals, exploring their sacred significance across diverse spiritual traditions. This innovative project weaves together education, creativity, and cultural exploration, inviting participants to reflect on the symbolic roles of animals in rituals, mythology, and art.
At a time when climate change and habitat loss heighten the tension between coexistence and competition for resources, When Worlds Collide sparks essential conversations about conservation, animal rights, and ethical responsibility. Through a vibrant mix of workshops, discussions, and artistic expression, participants will explore these complex relationships and bring them to life in the spectacular Mela Carnival Parade on 16th August 2025.
Be part of a transformative experience that blends education, creativity, and performance to celebrate the bonds between humans and animals. Together, we will explore, create, and inspire, culminating in a breathtaking parade that raises awareness about conservation and celebrates the beauty of connection.
