Ardagh Young Creatives: Gathering for Nature

Ardagh Young Creatives is a programme dedicated to opening pathways into design for young people aged 14 – 16. It aims to inspire and increase access to the creative sector through creative workshops, mentoring and career guidance. Every year, the museum brings together a group of young people who receive guidance from industry experts and creatives from various design disciplines. The group works collaboratively to develop projects that bring their ideas to life and give shape to their learnings and aspirations.

This free display presents the work of this year's cohort, inspired by the theme of 'Gather' through fashion, digital world-building, graphic design and architecture. Their physical build, designed and built with architects Siraaj Mitha and Katie Fisher, explores how we can come together to celebrate nature.

You are invited to interact with the free display, by climbing onto the seating area to relax, converse and contemplate. You may access the build from ground level and view the structure from multiple angles.
