#RetrofitReimagined returns Autumn 2023 for a festival season that brings together connected gatherings across the UK around retrofit as a site for addressing the inequalities of wider, interlinked systems, of which our built environment sits at the heart. bit.ly/RetrofitReimagined23

I’m looking for a visual / graphic designer who is great dealing with dense information to turn a piece into a report, working with an illustrator / comic artists (in our team) who will give life and illustration to some of the points, a portfolio to see of similar work would be ace, it will be a pretty immediate start. – at Birmingham, England

If ever you wanted to find out about @MAIA_Group and not sure how to connect, if you're curious what @yardarthouse is about and want to get a feel of our work and wider context, or if you're down to rehearse life affirming cultural infrastructures with us, Art School is the one.

We've been so inspired by the joyful catwalk by @gavin_j_rogers + @ericscutaro, demonstrating the love, confidence, strength and beauty in who we are that we must invest in if we want to build amazing homes, streets and communities. Has the circular economy ever felt more fierce?

The day the red carpet came to B16 @BhamCityCouncil We deserve luxury too. Clean streets, clean air, retrofit warm houses, trees, parks, water, trains (Rotton Park), on time buses, places to dance, to celebrate ourselves

When people take back the streets, there is cleaner air, joy, sharing, clothes swapping, planting, composting, dreaming, designing, play, collective food, hope + love. Thank you for a marvellous day Link Road, it’s going to get hard, but travelling together will make it better.

Glorious day in Bristol today catching up with @MelissaMean & some of the @knowlewestmedia + @WeCanMakeHomes team. Really inspiring vision & work. Left with an incredible insight into how an idea can spark a movement & create meaningful change where neighbours are a key component

A great privilege to hear stories from the @RetrofitBH community. When asked what matters most or keeps us hopeful when insulating homes & reimagining and rewilding streets, the answers were almost always the same: the next generation, and other people caring and taking action🙌🏾

Enjoyed Catalyst (published by @SelfMadeHero), but Cetea & Clay by @Charlotte_Inks and Convolute by @mrphoenix were absolute gut punches. Two short stories that convey the many aspects of being Black in society, in powerful, succinct ways.
