Our popular reading group, hosted by The Binks Hub and led by Dr Autumn Roesch-Marsh, is back for the new academic year. 

We are pleased to share the return of our creative research methods reading group! 

Due to popular demand, after running throughout the 2024-25 academic year, the reading group will return this semester.

If you are new to the reading group, it is open to all and will focus on creative and artistically engaged methods for research.  The emphasis will be on practice and the application of methods.  We may invite participants to experiment between reading group meetings, but this is not required.  You do not have to be an academic or a student to join this reading group, but you should have an interest in creative methods.
