Ardagh Young Creatives 2024

Join Ardagh Young Creatives! A programme for young people that aims to lower and lessen barriers to accessing the creative industries, inspire the power of design and support with resources for the future – whatever that may be.

This programme made up of four programmes, the main one being ‘AYC’. Here up to 17 young people aged 14-16 in London from under-represented backgrounds to explore all aspects of design and how it shapes their environment. We recognise the design world isn’t as diverse as it could be, and we want to make a positive change by supporting young people's pathway into the design world.

Over the course of four months, young people will come together with established and emerging designers to work on a brief.
