We are a recently formed group made up of diverse local community members of Walworth. The committee has 5 members. Our aim is to use the arts and creativity to re-imagine the streetscape of Walworth to make it a more healthy, sustainable and inclusive place. Connecting to the local community through an art-based frame to look at creative solutions for our community post Covid-19.
Our mission statement states:
Use art and community engagement to re-imagine the Walworth streetscape. Engage with the local community through an art based framework to take a look at how our environment can improve our well being. Connect with all ages, genders and ethnicities to ask how we can create more green links, give over more space to pedestrians and cyclists and play streets. Provide a platform for local emerging artists to deliver community art projects that explore the themes of a greener, healthier, cleaner and sustainable Walworth for its residents.
We hope to use this funding and project as a springboard for a yearly arts and sustainability festival which puts Walworth on the map. To achieve our aims and objectives we want to work with as many groups, individuals and partners across Walworth. Sustainability and re-imaging our community and planet is at the heart of what we want to achieve.
