nearing the end of our pilot home ed programme with the juniors! stretching ideas, making space for togetherness, being loud, expanding joy!
almost ready to share. what a dream team ❤️✨
We’d love to invite you to *The Green Room* pilot on 26 May, between 1 - 4pm at @goldsmithscommcentre (SE6) ✨
The Green room is the new phase of Philo, a creative, exploratory space for families to share in art and play, with visual prompts around social + environmental justice and materials/tools to creatively respond together
You’ll also have the opportunity to find out more about our 247 campaign, which is all around our dream to have consistent free creative spaces for families in South East London.
This is for local families interested in joining a space for art-making and play - all can take part! No previous art experience is needed :)
There’s no cost, but you need to book a free ticket in advance here or via link in bio - (limited spaces)
If you’d like to be involved on the day in any way, please DM! :) 💚

the Green Room loading…!
Hellooo 👋🏾 it’s been a little while so thought we’d share our intros with you 🥰
Here’s who’s behind Philo ✨🌱 The pilot ‘Educate to Liberate’ programme comes from the need to see our kids and young people activated and locked into what moves them and how they navigate and speak into what’s happening around them. Connection + creation over consumption ✨
The programme is now full 🙌🏾 We’ll be announcing our Green Room dates in May - open to all.
If you’re a parent on the programme and would like to share more of what you have with the cohort, please email us!
🖤
