Day 1 Discover
A participatory gathering
Part conference, part unconference. Stories, conversations, and shared questions with community builders, cultural leaders, and local practitioners. Space to contribute as well as listen.
The world tour · In-person experiences
Less scrolling.
More living.
Four days of shared learning, local discovery, and encounters that stay with you. Meet people who expand your world, deepen your practice, and bring connection to life.
Learning in the world
Come alive.
Together.
A conversation that opens something in you. Laughter around a shared table. The moment strangers begin to feel like friends.
Everything we learn online is meant to enrich life beyond the screen. These experiences bring us face to face: to listen more deeply, try something new, and discover a place through the people who give it life.
Learn from people whose work inspires you. Practise the craft with others who care. Then step into the city and create the connection you came to learn.
Inside the experience
Four days.
Many ways to connect.
A shared journey from inspiration to practice, and from practice into the life of the city.
Days 2 & 3 Deepen
The Catalyst training seminar
Two days of hands-on learning: welcoming, listening, experience design, and shared leadership. Work with peers, practise facilitating, and develop experiences you can bring into your community, team, venue, or neighborhood.
Day 4 Bring it to life
Bring connection into the city
Put your learning into practice through connection experiences open to the public. Facilitate real encounters, welcome people from across the city, and discover what unfolds when the wider community joins in.
Bring it to your city
Know a community
ready to gather?
A local host might bring a trusted community, a venue, relationships with practitioners, or the capacity to help produce the experience. The starting point is a conversation about what your community needs.
Over time, alumni may grow into paid facilitation and local hosting roles as their practice and the programme develop.
