Baltic Creative Careers Day…

Yesterday RaW delivered a workshop as part of BALTIC’s Creative Careers Day, giving students insights into using art & design as tools to tackle social issues. Focusing on the benefits of collaborative teamwork and examples of how we have implemented our process in projects involving social, environmental and educational topics we asked them to form collectives and consider an issue and how they might use their combined skills to offer a solution to it.

In just a short session we were impressed to see concepts for anti-racism and peace-not-war campaigns, innovative ways to encourage people to use public bins, a flagship North East music festival, free transport schemes for young people in education and playground art made with and for school children.

Thanks to all the students who came along and got stuck in, good luck in whatever careers you decide to pursue…
