Catch Transition Heathrow at Creative Transition event

On Tuesday 24th May, Transition Heathrow will be joining in with a day of talks and open space discussions about sustainability and resilience in art and design education. The event titled ‘The Keys are under the Mat’ is being organised by a group of staff and students from the CCW Graduate school (Camberwell College of Arts, Chelsea College of Art and Design and Wimbledon College of Art).

The group, calling themselves Creative Transition, have recently started a passionate conversation about sustainability and resilience in art and design education. Creative Transition is a call to all CCW staff and students to start talking about taking practical steps toward the art and design school they want to see in the future – inspired by how artists, designers, activists, writers and thinkers are responding to current challenges in the here and now.

There are noticeably few models for this new approach to radical revision of the new structures of curricula of existing art schools. The day will hopefully inspire individuals to work together to see how they might be creative in their own institution.

From 10-4pm in the Red Room, Chelsea College of Art Design. RSVP to ted@chelsea.arts.ac.uk
