Graffiti wall

Find out what young people in the local area think of the ideas behind Wellcome Collection as we showcase creative projects developed by 1A Arts etc, Fitzrovia Youth in Action, Holborn Community Association, Coram’s Fields, King’s Cross and Brunswick Neighbourhood Association, One KX and Y Touring Theatre Company.

Explore everything from giant graffiti of neurons to how we see our bodies today.  Work will be showcased at Wellcome Collection, Russell Square and some spaces inbetween.

Beautiful Photography Exhibition Trail 

Throughout Bloomsbury, Saturday and Sunday all Day

Fifteen young London photographers capture in images the thoughts, feelings, fantasies and fears young people have about their bodies. Their photos will form an outdoor photographic trail in public spaces around Bloomsbury and Wellcome Collection.
