Hello First name / Friend,, The January Challenge 2023 is here! This year, all of the challenges have been designed by different individuals and community groups across the UK. There is a really varied mix of challenges coming up - and we can’t wait to see where this month takes us. Learn more about how we created this years programme here. To get us started, today’s challenge is from David Tovey, a member of the Associates Leadership Programme at Arts & Homelessness International. The Associates Programme is the first cultural leadership programme in history for creatives who are or have been homeless. Meet the associates here. |

Think of an object that you own, or wear, that has some kind of a story attached to it. Imagine your object on display in an exhibition. Tell the story of your object, as if it was written on the plaque next to the display. What would you say? |

What type of room or setting would your object be displayed in and why? |
