Creativity, community and belonging: in conversation with Morag Myerscough | DBA webinar
Morag Myerscough’s mantra is ‘make happy those who are near and those who are far will come’. Her work is rooted in creating a sense of joy and belonging for all who encounter it and her strong visual approach is instantly recognisable wherever it is placed. She transforms spaces and impacts communities as she creates by absorbing, learning and collaborating.
As we come to the end of 2020, a year where arguably we’ve never felt a stronger sense of shared experience as a society, at times alongside an opposing and conflicting sense of disparity of experience, the role of creativity to make sense of the world and push ourselves forward into a better reality has never felt so vital.
So for our final webinar of the year, we’ll be in conversation with Morag, exploring her work and its energy, and opening up the floor to you and your questions as we talk to Morag about her experiences of the past year, her views on the opportunities for creativity to build identity and belonging and the values that matter most as we develop ideas and make things together.
Join us on Thursday 17 December from 3-4pm for this unmissable end to a colourful year as we take a fresh look at the world through the eyes of a true design inspiration.
Open to all, book now.
