Who we are and what we do:
“Making Thriving Neighbourhoods with Art, Tech and Care”

The KWMC team are an arts and tech collective working with the local community. We are an Arts
Council supported National Portfolio Organisation embedded in the Knowle West neighbourhood in
South Bristol. KWMC started life over 25 years ago as an artist’s photography residency putting cameras and film equipment in residents’ hands to share voices and peoples’ lived experience, using these tools to creatively explore ideas around community regeneration. Since that time, we have extended our use of creative media tools to include all kinds of technology from coding, AI, to digital fabrication. Our work has encompassed how we might use citizen generated data, live differently alongside nature, imagine different kinds of futures through prototyping and making, and co-create the kind of communities we want to live in. We work with young people through our Jump Studios and Maker City programme, support emerging and established artists, ensuring a diversity of voices and that participation in our projects is accessible to everyone. We use our creative practice and community tech tools to experiment with our community to produce tangible change locally and share our learning globally.

The KWMC ‘family’ includes The Factory - a digital fabrication and maker space based at Filwood
Green Business Park, We Can Make, a Community Interest Company building low carbon homes, and Eight, a creative agency supporting emerging creatives to learn skills and build their portfolio.
KWMC is an active member of the European Network of Living Labs and has developed a practice that includes research and collaboration with universities from across the world.

People and place-led innovation, with community co-design is at the heart of everything we do.
