Imagine a community theatre inspired by Boal’s Forum Theatre, where the audience doesn’t just watch—they dive into the action! 🎭

We throw a bunch of complex issues and problems their way, and it’s up to them to think critically and decide how to tackle oppression head-on.

Our goal? To create a space where discussions, debates, and problem-solving thrive, inviting young people to jump into challenging conversations and make a real difference.

Check out this awesome photography exhibition co-created with folks from displaced backgrounds and curated by the talented Katel Delia. It’s all built through creative workshops with people who have experienced displacement.

This exhibition is your ticket to see Malta through the eyes of those who have crossed borders. 🌍

Big shoutout to Quicklets Malta for generously donating their meeting room for our exhibition during RWM!

Friends of the Earth hosted ‘Rooting Kinship’, kicking off with a super fun herb-growing workshop. 🌿 After getting our hands dirty, we enjoyed a potluck vegetarian BBQ with mouth-watering veggies from The Veg Box. 🥗

The vibe of this event was all about reconnecting with the earth, helping us remember our place in the natural world. It’s a reminder that we’re part of nature, and it’s part of us. 🌍✨

Geġwiġija hosted a pop-up library all about Migration and Compassion.

The evening was packed with books to borrow, stories, painting, film, and delicious food. 📚🎨🎬🍲

It created a warm, compassionate vibe for our closing event of Refugee Week Malta at Afro Deli and Coffee. 🌍❤️

 

Spark Fest is Spark 15’s annual bash that brings together Maltese nationals, European folks, and migrant communities for a day of fun, unity, and cultural exchange.

This year, we’ve teamed up with Dance Beyond Borders to bring you an epic lineup: artsy workshops, a thought-provoking talk on housing and homelessness, mouth-watering Ethiopian food, and a whole lot of dancing and live music. It’s all about celebrating and connecting people from all walks of life, sparking new friendships and connections. 🎉

March for Peace is our yearly walk on World Refugee Day, standing in solidarity with everyone forced to leave their homes because of conflict, poverty, or environmental issues.

This year, we teamed up with MGRM Malta and YPB Malta to host a flashmob, raising awareness about the flawed “safe countries” policy. Right now, it considers 8 countries that criminalize the LGBTIQ community as safe. Let’s change that! 🌍✊🏳️‍🌈

Malti-Etnik, created by choreographer and activist Chakib Zidi, was a public performance that brought people together in various locations to experience the magic of diverse communities living in harmony in Malta.

This performance was a vibrant celebration of the many ethnicities that make up today’s culturally-rich and contemporary Maltese life. 🌍✨

Big thanks to the Malta International Arts Festival for collaborating with us to make this happen!
