Braided is the creative outcome of a collaboration between five of Victoria’s leading audio producers and a group of young people facing significant life challenges. Braided opens the door for young storytellers to find their own voice and production style and to learn the craft of audio story-telling.

Season 1:  Home 

Nine young people, nine episodes, each one a personal interpretation of the meaning of home. Each story an intimate window into the daily challenges, lived experiences and individual passions of the creators.  Musicians and artists from the studios have created the artwork and music for the series.

Braided is a project of the Artful Dodgers Studios in Melbourne, Australia. We are a flexible and welcoming studio space where young people create art and music with the support of experienced artists and musicians. The studio is open to young people between the ages of 15 – 27 who are living with difficult circumstances.

The Artful Dodgers Studios is a program of Jesuit Social Services, a social change organisation engaging at the hard end of social justice and working to build a just society where all people can live to their full potential.

We are grateful to the Lord Mayors Charitable Fund and City of Yarra for making this project possible.
