Psychosemitic is a not-for-profit organisation that facilitates transformative interaction between Muslim, Jewish and Middle Eastern individuals and communities in the UK.
We do this through three main spheres of activity:
Cultural Events - We bring people together to enjoy innovative music, film, poetry, storytelling, painting and movement influenced by Muslim, Jewish and Middle Eastern cultural traditions. Having established ourselves in London, we are currently looking to run events in other cities throughout the UK.
Education - We provide programmes and facilitators for schools and youth-groups, which utilise creative media as educational tools to deal with issues such as ethnic identity, substance misuse, religious values, texts and rituals, family relations and bullying. These programmes range from single workshops to long-term projects which culminate in the production of a performance/record/play/film etc.
Social Action - We work in partnership with schools, synagogues, mosques and other local bodies to facilitate collaborative social action between Muslim, Jewish and Middle Eastern communities. These projects generally focus ..ing the wider community as well as our ‘home’ communities.
