“London offers the most maverick and exciting arts education in the world. The city’s art schools are internationally recognised as incubating the creatives of the future. However the lack of accessible, practical advice on how to transform a creative practice into a career in the industry can make graduating a terrifying and emotive time.
School for Creative Startups is a much needed iniative. I’m honoured to be a part of a project which promotes the passing on of experience and knowledge to the next generation of creatives. It’s a sort of philanthropic passing of the baton in a very real, very practical way.”
