Restorative Storytelling Festival ‘Acts of Survival’ Opening
Join us as we open the Restorative Storytelling Festival
‘Acts of Survival’ with moving spoken word performances
that create space for women impacted by violence to share
their stories. We will also première a short video, ‘Acts of
Community’, which shines a light on everyday kindness –
the small gestures that can transform someone’s day.
Our city is full of character, warmth, and resilience. It is
welcoming and friendly, and this event celebrates those
positive stories that often go unheard. Like ripples in water,
acts of kindness spread outward, inspiring hope and
connection across our communities.
Throughout the week, 2 Royal Avenue will become a hub
for creativity, dialogue, and community, hosting a series
of workshops, talks, and events. Alongside this, we will
present an exhibition of past projects through panels and
digital displays. These stories reflect lived experiences of
resilience, hope, and change, offering space for reflection
and connection.
Storytelling festivals have always brought people
together through shared cultural experiences, fostering
understanding across divides and creating belonging.
At Voicing the Void, our mission is to enable, empower,
and encourage those whose voices have too often been
silenced or overlooked to find and share their stories. This
exhibition invites you to step into those stories, experience
their depth, and explore how they can build empathy and
inspire change.
