The Conference for Creators..

It’s been a while since there has been an event where we really get to see a good example of representation within the professional creative industry. It’s not often people of all levels in their career, all ethnicities, genders and so on, get to share the stage and share their story and feel like they are really and truly represented.

Well… Making London wanted to change all of that so here it is!

One day of stories and conversations with ground-breaking inventors, designers, creators and doers. Come, engage and be inspired to start Making. In the spirit of the theme, we’ll be donating 100% of the ticket sales to We Are Stripes, the organisation that works to create opportunities for individuals from ethnic backgrounds in the creative industries. Here’s to more diverse creators and stories being told.

Speakers have come from all different types of creative backgrounds and they are here for one day only to share their stories, advice, struggles and everything in-between for all those creators out there! From the likes of; Google, Secret Cinema, gal-dem, Instagram, VICE, Dazed and more. We also have our very own co-founder Ibrahim Kamara speaking from GUAP. (so you know its gonna be lit!)

This event was put together by lead organisers Jody Orsborn and Rima Garsys with the rest of the lead co-creators, Shannie Mears (The Elephant Room & GUAP), Victoria Stoyonova ( Creative Mornings/London) and Nene Parotsam (WE ARE STRIPES). Together they have all contributed an amazing amount to make this day be what it should be, inspiring!
