This chapter reflects upon the authors' earlier work, "Spaces of Vernacular Creativity," and its critique of the then-dominant focus on the "creative economy." It argues that creativity is often narrowly defined and geographically limited to urban centres and specific industries, overlooking the vernacular, everyday practices that occur in less glamorous spaces and among marginal groups. The authors emphasize the importance of recognising non-economic values and outcomes of creativity, such as social collaboration, community building, and individual well-being, and advocate for a more inclusive and expansive understanding of creativity that embraces diverse forms of making, socialising, and engaging with the world. Ultimately, the text welcomes the rejection of elitist and reductive definitions of creativity and supports its protean nature.
