FÉLIX / A SHARED POINT OF VIEW
A conversation with room to grow.
Convened by Félix, the Creative Council is being developed as an invitation-only advisory circle. Its purpose is to connect ideas, open useful conversations and bring cultural work closer to the publication’s wider mission.
THE PURPOSE
Different disciplines. Shared curiosity.
Creative exchange.
The Council’s proposed focus spans editorial ideas, original film, cultural conversations and thoughtful introductions. Members would contribute the perspective of their own practice and help connect the publication with new creative voices.
Culture with purpose.
The Council is convened by Félix within a publication wholly owned by The Apareció Foundation. The Foundation’s work in education and mentorship gives that cultural exchange a wider context.
THE WORLD AROUND THE COUNCIL

The editorial perspective.
Writers, photographers, artists and image-makers bring different ways of seeing. The Council is being developed as a place to exchange those perspectives and introduce new creative possibilities.

The shared table.
Félix has a history of bringing creative people into the same room. The proposed Council builds on that spirit through considered conversations, introductions and cultural gatherings.

A wider purpose.
Félix Magazine is wholly owned by The Apareció Foundation. Its cultural voice sits alongside the Foundation’s work in education, mentorship and community support.
PARTICIPATION
A contribution, clearly defined.
The proposed role is advisory: bring a point of view, share thoughtful introductions and explore possibilities for cultural or editorial exchange. Individual invitations will set out the role, scope and time commitment. This creative advisory role is separate from the Foundation’s governing board.
The Council agreement proposes no required financial contribution. Editorial commissions and commercial collaborations have their own agreements.
A PLACE FOR YOUR PERSPECTIVE
Ideas that open the next conversation.
The initiative is in development. We welcome introductions from people whose work brings a distinct perspective and a generous approach to creative exchange.
INTRODUCE YOURSELF
What would you bring to the conversation?
Share your discipline, selected work and the perspective you would bring. The team can then discuss the developing initiative and whether there is a suitable next step.
