Welcome to Optimism

gardening is good

Every
month a couple of volunteers from W+K – that’s us – go along
and help tidy the garden up at one of Broadway's homeless hostels in
Elephant and Castle. The aim is to get the garden looking nice but also
helps to get the residents build up their confidence with the public
again.

So far Donna, Ronny, Laura Vent, Tom Fitzgerald, Helen Foulder and Anna Blackstock have gone along to help.  On the last visit four residents came out to help with the garden, which was fantastic.

Some more folks are going along next Thursday. Here's a couple of before and 'so far' photos for you to see how things are going: 

Before: overgrown…

Now (so far): starting to plant vegetables and flowers…

After much ado and a lot of hard work from our digital team, studio and art show committee, the W+K art show is up for viewing and purchasing. All proceeds go to room to read who are awesome!

The show, which is also happening physically in the offices of W+K Portland, is composed of artworks made by W+K folks all over the world.
