Creativity through play.

Workshops, in-person and remote, for kids and adults.

Energising, connecting and super useful. We’ll definitely be integrating Sam’s ideas for play into our work. Highly recommended.

Ministry of the future

A workshop I ran as part of the E17 Art Trail in July 2021. The Ministry for anyone aged five and up to dream, draw, write and build the future. The idea was to give kids an open and positive space in which to think about the future and see where their ideas might lead them.

Something out of nothing

A workshop designed and run for students at the University of Suffolk. We explored found materials, looking for creative opportunities and observations to build on. We then documented them and turned the images into a zine.

What if…? workshops, run with Susanna Crossman

We run workshops with organisations that want to inject more play into their day. We explore the power of divergent thinking and ways for you and your team to access it.

A wonderful knitted road sign that is wrapped around a tree trunk. It's obviously hand made and that helps it communicate with warmth, charm and pointedness.

The signs they are a-changin’

Community workshops to help streets design and make signs to help change driver behaviour.

I believe that people can spark great creativity when they are given space and time to follow their own ideas.
