Let’s use this month to get creative!

Explore Fashion, Art and Mindfulness:

Grace Wales Bonner at The Serpentine Gallery
Jan 19 – Feb 16 2019

Take a walk through Hyde Park and stop in at the multi-sensory installation by fashion designer Grace Wales Bonner. The exhibition is broadly based around a series of ‘shrines’ created by Kapwani Kiwanga, Eric N. Mack, Paul Mpagi Sepuya and Wales Bonner herself. Along with the physical objects, the Serpentine will also host a series of meditation workshops during the next month, making it a great activity to get the creative juices flowing!
