About this Event
For the first time ever, Rye Here, Rye Now are teaming up with Peckham Levels during London Design Festival for its two day festival of Doodle Talks (in collaboration with Drawing People Together), workshops, maker's market and exhibition.
Join us and come and meet illustrators, designers, printmakers, photographers and other artists showcasing the creative talent of this vibrant local community and across London. You can sketch, draw and doodle along as you listen to talks, meet and buy hand-designed goods by artists and designers and check-out the creative artwork in the exhibition running across the 5th and 6th floors of Peckham Levels. All events are free.
Outstanding creatives from different creative disciplines will be talking about their work, sharing their insights on their creative process and share valuable insights of life as a creative. The twist will be that while they are speaking, you will be invited to observe and draw the speakers as they share their stories.
Along with the talks, there will be the Makers' Market of over 30 designer makers across London selling their unique items. There will also be an exhibition of posters of designers, illustrators, photographer from Peckham and across London.
For: Graphic designers, illustrators, digital designers, product designers, textile designers, photographers, filmmakers and other creatives!
