UAL Black History Month: Reclaiming Narratives | Lynnette Goddard

This event is open to all, but booking is required.

At University of the Arts London (UAL), we acknowledge the dedication and intention of practitioners through this year's Black History Month theme, Reclaiming Narratives. In this lecture series, we identify community changemakers who address social and racial justice and its impacts on art and design pedagogy. Join us for a series of talks from our culturally varied speakers on decolonising course content to support the intersectionality of our students.

Date: Wednesday 4 December

Time: 2pm- 3.30pm

Location: Theatre, Wimbledon College of Arts
