Out of the Box is part of a three-year arts programme, working with people at Growing Lives in Ilkeston, funded by Arts Council England.

This small book gives a glimpse into the real lives of local people who have been through tough times. It may help illuminate the complexities many of us live with.

From generously shared personal stories, Jan Flamank condensed gentle conversations into haiku-style poems, using only people’s own words. Join us for a talk with the artists and writers to hear about their experiences.
