About this event
Congress Coffee Company. Part conversation, performance, and creative pause exploring how parenthood reshapes artistic identity, time, ambition, and care.Join us for an evening centred on the lived experiences of artists navigating parenthood — including pregnancy, caregiving, chosen family, fertility journeys, and the decision not to parent. Through shared stories and reflection, we’ll explore how creativity adapts, contracts, expands, and survives alongside responsibility and love.This gathering creates space for nuance, honesty, and connection — honouring the many ways artists balance making work while caring for others and themselves.
