Event information
Join us for an exciting evening celebrating the beauty of hair diversity! This in-person event will take place on Fri Oct 27, 2023 at 18:00:00 GMT. We are thrilled to invite you to 38 Celebration Avenue, East Village, Stratford, E20 1DB, London, where the magic will unfold.
Hair discrimination is a topic that has gained attention in schools and workplaces. In an effort to address this issue, Nurture Academy organized a 'Community Hair Art Project' over the summer. The project aimed to allow young Black and Ethnic minority individuals to express their experiences through canvas drawings and write-ups. By showcasing the talents of these young people, the event hopes to shift perspectives and have a positive impact on those facing discrimination.
The artwork created by these young individuals will be available for purchase, with a percentage of the proceeds going back to the young artists. There will also be food available for each ticket holder.
Whether you're a Teacher, educator or someone who works with young people, this event is for you. Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere, connect with like-minded individuals, and be inspired by the limitless possibilities of hair art in our exhibition and take part in our panel discussions.
Don't miss this opportunity to celebrate and embrace hair diversity. Mark your calendars and get ready to be amazed!
