Tutor René de Lange's 5 top reasons to take a Future Creatives course!

  1. Pushing your creative boundaries and using new techniques and methods, really helps you grow as an artist
  2. Meeting other creative people could lead to amazing collaborations one day
  3. Immersing yourself in your creative passion outside of school, really gives you the time and space to develop your ideas and dreams in more detail outside of the school environment
  4. Having the expertise of artists and designers at hand as part of Future Creatives is a really valuable resource in giving you some industry experience for your future career. You might get in contact with a creative career you had never considered before
  5. Doing art in your spare time can be incredibly relaxing and mindful during these changing times. Art and drawing can really be a form of meditation and relaxation
