Our story

 

Hi! Thank you for visiting us here!

We look forward to getting to know you a bit more, maybe through pop-up play, play streets, making or arts and craft. Doing things together is a great way to build relationships and foster community.

If you like what you see on our website, ask us for our consulting package, or get in touch with us for a chat about how we can support your playing, making or creating endeavours!

Katharina Popp and Marg O’Connell - Kindling Creative

kind-ling: (v.)

1. the process of creating the spark; 2. the playful child in us all; 3. building something that is uniquely ‘you’

At Kindling Creative we believe that children have a right to play, leisure and recreational space (Article 31 HRCRC).

We believe being creative helps us to maintain our wellbeing, express who we are and connect us to our world and to each other.

We provoke creative conversations and actions, providing quality resources and inclusive spaces to create.

Art, play and making are the drivers for engagement.

Kindling Creative has brought us out of the confines of the office and into dynamic, vibrant spaces. It's here you'll find us: sweaty, busy, messy and in the middle of playing, creating and making!
