What is Kingdom Creatives?
Kingdom Creatives is a community who share the Christian narrative and are passionate about creativity. We provide a mobile, organic space and prioritise nurture and encouragement for the artist/creative and anyone who enjoys creativity.
We are a Christ Church Clifton, Bristol, initiative and have amalgamated with the Together4Bristol Arts Sphere.
Vision and values
We believe creativity is in our DNA, a gift from the Creator. We want to explore, with you, what this means in terms of connecting, expressing and offering.
We seek to be transparent and respectful in our words and actions. We hope to provide encouragement for the holistic self: to see the artist achieve their highest worth.
Innovative: we are creative and serve to bring quality.
Behind our values lies a presumption that the physical reflects the spiritual.
What do we do?
We facilitate gatherings for those with faith, those who do not profess faith, those unsure. Gatherings have different genres - worship, dialogue, exploration and presentation. If possible, we are available to listen, mentor and provide pastoral care.
We are a network with three objectives:
Gather: To build relationships and unity
We have a committed core team, adopting principles of support, sharing and endeavouring to prefer one another. We see this as both the model and catalyst for transformation. We gather creatives at a various events small, such as socials at the Everyman Cinema, and large, such as the “Party in the Park”, with thousands of people, in 2013.
Grow: To learn from God and each other
We don’t wish to duplicate others’ work; instead we aim to refer artists to the most appropriate organisation, individual or project for their needs, ideas and creativity. We have been involved in city-wide gatherings, such as “Going Deeper” at the Colston Hall in 2013, which explored Arts issues from Christian perspectives and recent Outreach Gatherings at the Colston Hall and at Trinity College.
Go!: To act together and as individuals
We want to find out what people want and how Kingdom Creatives works for them. Action will include convening, initiating and coming alongside projects, plus conferences, such as “Press Red”, in 2019, about violence and abuse against women worldwide.
