The Encyclopedia of Us is a new bi-annual newspaper created about the HU3 area of Hull by its residents – with support from me, Three Ways East arts organisation and designers Paper Rhino. The first 24 page issue was collectively planned, co-produced and designed during the lockdowns before being released in July 2021. Printed in thousands and distrubuted across HU3 the Encyclopedia of Us aims to be a living newspaper…an engine to help us see, imagine and act. The issue contains over 5o contributions and articles by locals with each article accompanied by an invitation to act and also get involved.
As a significant outcome of the Artist Investigator work, this paper, builds on the Asset Based Community Development work I’ve been leading on in HU3 since 2018. EofUS newspaper showcases the determination, skills and drive of the community it serves, while also acknowledging its ongoing challenges. It’s overriding ambition is to be dynamic with each issue reflecting ideas that emerge from people who get involved.
