Yesterday we turned our focus to making a climate summit table based on Judy Chicago’s ‘The Dinner Party’. We’ll be designing dinner party events for makers-thinkers-poets-lovers-doers to encourage design of local action for people and planet soon. Look out for the invites!

We are lucky to have some incredibly talented young artists at our Bolton campus. One of our students actually won the 2024 Pride History logo competition out of thousands of entries and, as such, created a Pride theme Valentine’s card to advocate for a more diverse offering. Available to buy now @creatives_now #valentines #pinccollege #creativesnow #boltonmuseum

Last term, our Bolton students visited @Creatives_Now to explore exhibition prep & creative curation. They shared thoughts on art & different forms, leaving with fresh perspectives. @BoltonLMS @boltoncarers @boltoncouncil

I love the return care of artists to lend their confidence, joy, magic and skill to our youngest. Create the space, hold the space, let the door revolve, keep the reminder of freedom being high, let the network grow ☺️. What a gift to be part of it all.

By complete chance in a local cafe today I met 2 former students (and one parent of another) who I worked with over many years as an artist when they were at primary school, and they have all chosen a degree or career in the arts, I am so proud of them! Children are artists 🧡
