Curious Collective

People + Place = Possibility

Our Mission

We work with communities to design practices shaped by lived knowledge, creativity, joy and care.

Our work is rooted in social justice, health equity and community cohesion.
We use creative health practices to prioritise the cultural and place-based insights of people often excluded from decision-making spaces.

Our Practices

Arts & Health

Supporting healing, expression and connection through creative practice

Participatory Design

Co-curating approaches with people, not for them

Creative Research & Evaluation

Generating insight through storytelling, making and shared experience

Our Work

Our work responds to ongoing inequities and the need to shift how decisions are made, especially for communities often excluded from those spaces. Together we can explore using creative and participatory approaches.

Culture of Care

Our culture of care shapes everything we do.

It informs how we engage with each other, with partners, collaborators and within our communities. Care is how we commit to being transparent and set shared expectations. It is an opportunity that lays out a pathway to support us on the journey that we navigate together.
