Transformative Futures

Transformative Futures at Camden Art Centre brings young people together to explore different approaches to making art.

Led by a practicing contemporary artist, the weekly sessions are a chance to try out processes and techniques used by artists living and working today – including drawing, video, sound art, assemblage and more.

Through our 2026 spring season, artist and educator Lina Ivanova will lead a series of workshops inspired by themes in our current exhibition programme. These hands-on sessions will explore a range of ways of making imagery from analogue photography through to casting sculptures.

Transformative Futures seeks to foster a supportive, inclusive and anti-racist environment where participants can be creative, work with new material and ideas, find out more about contemporary art and collaborate together.

Who is this for and how to join:

• This group is for 15-25 year olds with an interest in art, making and creativity.
• Participants are welcome join a Transformative Futures session at any point, just come along and try it out.
• No experience is necessary, just an interest in making art. All materials will be provided.
• Participants are encouraged to join as many sessions as they can, but there is no expectation to attend every week.
• The sessions are particularly aimed at local young people (boroughs of Camden, Brent, Barnet and Harrow) not currently at university.

Transformative Futures will culminate in a takeover event in July 2026, produced by participants. Alongside the workshops additional opportunities such as residencies, open studios and development sessions are available through the year.
