Caligraffiti art

Create artwork that makes an impact and send out messages for positive change for the planet.

Join artist Linett Kamala for this creative workshop and take inspiration from her signature style – calligraffiti – to express your wishes for the future of the planet.

Explore powerful examples of art and graphic design created by environmental activists with V&A Museum curator Zorian Clayton.

Meet Paloma Ortega Arriaga and Izhar Shah, researchers working on environmental justice, renewable energy and sustainable cities at Imperial College, London.

Together with them you will come up with the pledge that you will make; or want to see the people in power make, and create artwork to share your pledge and spark positive change for the future.

Please send us your questions! We’d love to talk about them during the workshop. You can submit these questions on Eventbrite when you register for this event or add them to the live chat on the day.
