Let's gather, share and make together - with your children in attendance - or not. Events are adult-centred but children are welcome to attend and participate. No particular level of experience is necessary to attend – women at any stage of their careers or creative journeys are welcome.

"All of our groups are designed to welcome women, people who birth and non binary people who are mothers, parents or carers at any stage in their journey. Makers of all interests and disciplines are encouraged to join us, whether your creative identity is a profession, a passion, or lying dormant, you are welcome. Children are encouraged to attend too and are integrated into the meeting, for the dual roles of mother and artist are recognised and given equal value within all MWM events." (MWM)

Events are open to all *mothers and non binary parents. Expectant, new, grand, great grand, step, foster, adoptive mothers. Those with babies, or older children. Mothers without living children. Mothers who breastfeed, mothers who bottlefeed. Mothers of any race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity. Mothers with a disability.

We hope to continue sessions monthly on Friday mornings for £3 charge depending on taster session uptake!

This in-person event will be held at The Old School House Boscombe, located at Gladstone Road East, Boscombe, Bournemouth, UK.

The M/Others Who Make principles that underlie it and inform the running of all the hubs:

Consciously Celebrating Care and Creativity

Welcoming and valuing the different roles you hold, as care-giver, as friend, partner, m/other, child, sibling – and the creative ones – as a maker of stories, songs, paintings, costumes, cakes, photos, pots, poems and more. During our events, the presence of children or other dependents is always welcomed. We support you to make the decisions that are best for your care.

Radically Supporting Connection

Championing the power of peer support. We believe in the profound and transformative power of meeting one another as equals no matter who you are, and whatever your experience has been. We share skills and resources that enable us to support one other to find the answers we need.

Inclusively Inviting Community

Validating specific identities and experiences. We invite people to bring their whole selves, intersecting identities and lived experiences to our events. We aim to bring people together in meaningful and enriching ways, finding points of connection and solidarity, alongside celebrating difference.

M/Others Who Make is an international initiative connecting and supporting women and non binary people to thrive in their creative paths, alongside sustaining their caring roles, of self and others. We aim to enrich our community through peer support, mentorship, events, scratch work sharings, and creative opportunities.

At M/Others Who Make we celebrate care, cultivate creativity, and support connection.
