Location: XR UK (UK Wide)
UK Creative Circle works with the UK Actions Circle and supports design and creativity across the movement. We work directly with the UK Arts Factory. The Arts Factory produces handmade banners, flags, patches and placards for UK actions and rebellions, working closely with Media & Messaging, the Design Group and other graphic designers. The Arts Factory facilitates the autonomy and decentralisation of local, regional and nations art groups with the provision of online resources, trainings and workshops and materials eg. blocks, flag and banner fabrics. Arts assets are held centrally for the use by the whole movement. Our aim is to disseminate XR messaging and content and create visually stunning actions to optimise attention from the public and media on actions/rebellions. We are all Crew... a dedicated team of voluntary makers who enjoy Doing-It-Together. Please read Chapter 19 "The Arts Factory", p20 "This is not a Drill" for further insight.
