As part of our ongoing initiative dedicated to bringing great art and creative flare to unusual sites across the borough, we have partnered with Kensington and Chelsea Council to run a series of community workshops to help with the creation of a mural on the wall of the to-be-refurbished Emslie Horniman Pleasance playground.

The project aims to make a positive contribution to the area’s urban landscape and celebrate the histories of the borough with original works by local artists, chosen by public vote.

We are now seeking local artists/community groups to join a series of workshops to help us fine-tune the design, the theme and the execution of the mural to go on the main wall of the playground, and we are open to hearing from you.

All ideas and recommendations welcome, and as a starting point we would love to reference the history of the area and park, for a final artwork to compliment the playground themes, or to explore an artist facilitated, collaborative community design.

To help us prepare for the first workshop, if you would like to nominate any local artists or others to join this conversation, add your own thoughts to the process - please fill out below anonymous questionnaire. 

It should take no more than 5 minutes of your time.
