The Set Up

Braintopia is an open-style studio with different stations for each interactive art experience. Guests are supported by artists to co-create with other attendees.

We keep Braintopia free through our own U SHIRT sales, grant funding, sponsorship and space partnerships. We work with councils, trusts, cultural partners, venues, brands and community organisations who want to support creative wellbeing, reuse and low-cost offline culture.

Why we need Braintopia

People need more low-cost places to spend time offline. High streets and venues need fresh reasons for people to come together. At the same time, clothing and creative materials are going unused.

Braintopia brings those needs together: creative wellbeing, reuse, community connection and playful public space.
