I have just spent an excellent three days on a really inspiring workshop hosted by Future Creative. Future Creative are a dynamic social enterprise organisation and act as a creative agency throughout Kent to broker partnerships between creative practitioners and schools. A part of its mission is to engage with young people and help them ‘optimise their future’. This is something I have been interested in for a while and I am sure that a visual thinking practice has very strong links with education. If young people are aware of visual thinking tools and techniques then surely their communication literacy will be improved for the future?

I and eighteen other creative practitioners explored the landscape of Creative Learning. I gained fresh insights into my practice, myself and had fun exploring the possibilities for using my visual thinking practice and skills within a creative learning environment.Very inspirational stuff.
