Camphill MK is coming to Brooklands for the MK60 Project

In 2027, Milton Keynes will celebrate its 60th anniversary (MK60), and we’re excited to be a part of the celebrations. We are delighted to have received funding from Milton Keynes City Council to deliver a community arts project in Brooklands as part of the city-wide celebrations.

The Brooklands MK60 will bring together local residents and artists from Camphill Milton Keynes, creating opportunities to share stories, build connections, and celebrate what makes Brooklands special through creativity and collaboration.

The project will run from November 2026 to April 2027, beginning with community engagement and creative workshops. The work will culminate in a public showcase as part of the wider MK60 celebrations in spring 2027.

The project aims to:

• Bring people together and create new connections
• Celebrate Brooklands’ stories, character, and community spirit
• Create a lasting collection of handmade creative works, including artwork and cards
• Contribute to the wider MK60 celebrations and inspire future community engagement
• The project will focus on the area surrounding the Lidl site in Brooklands

Activities will include:

• A community creative workshop in Brooklands to gather ideas, stories, and local inspiration
• Collaborative making sessions at Camphill Milton Keynes, where residents and community members can work alongside our artists
• The creation of artwork, displays, printed materials, and other creative resources celebrating Brooklands and MK60
• Collaboration with Chrysalis Theatre to explore inclusive arts and performance opportunities

We are keen to hear from local residents, businesses, community groups, and partners who would like to help shape the project or explore opportunities to collaborate. We want the project to reflect the voices, experiences, and aspirations of the Brooklands community.

We look forward to working together on this exciting initiative. If you’re interested in learning more or getting involved, please fill out this form or contact Teresa de Sousa at Teresa.DeSousa@camphillmk.co.uk.
