Creative Collective 2026

Calling all young creatives in Westminster! City Lions’ Creative Collective is back, and we want to showcase your talent to the world.

Submit your artwork for a chance to be featured in public exhibitions across Westminster and in our online gallery. Whether you paint, draw, sculpt, write, film, design, or express yourself in any other creative way — we want to see it.

We were previously taught that art is a paintbrush and paper but today has shown us that art is a huge world. City Lions is a good thing to do as it provides really good opportunities to visit places like this (Somerset House).
