Bridget McKenzie (Climate Museum UK)

Come along to a free workshop to dream up and prototype a mobile Climate Museum UK. This is intended to be an experimental mobile museum that will creatively stir a response to the climate emergency and other threats to our biosphere. This vision has a focus on the lived experience of climate change, the big issue of climate justice, and involving people in ideas for possible ways of living in future. See more on https://climatemuseumuk.org/
This session will involve working in teams to hack up ideas for a mobile museum using all kinds of stuff like cardboard boxes, coloured paper and pens, old magazines, some key facts and stories, and most importantly drawing on your own ideas and skills. These prototypes may then be documented and shared online to get public feedback, and subsequently to help fundraise to create the museum. 
Places are limited, but participation is not selective. Those most warmly encouraged to book are people who:

Would be keen to continue being involved in supporting Climate Museum UK beyond this workshop (e.g. helping to fundraise or promote it, or being part of an editorial advisory group)
</LI>

It will be in the Court Room within Toynbee Studios. Hot drinks will have to be purchased from the cafe (and can be brought into the room) but water, cake and snacks will be provided. The Toynbee Studios bar will be open until 8 to continue chatting informally after prototyping. 
This is hosted kindly by Arts Admin as part of the Season for Change https://www.seasonforchange.org.uk/
