Full ONLINE Permaculture Design Course for Artists and Creatives

We are delighted to be convening a full online Permaculture Design Course for Artists and Creatives. This unique course takes the classic Permaculture Design Course as a starting point, but has been created with a specifically creative focus exploring how permaculture design can be used to deepen creative practice and to bring a new ethical basis to projects, particularly in relation to ecology, natural systems and regenerative cultures.

WHEN WILL THE COURSE TAKE PLACE?

The course takes place from Saturday 22nd April 2023 to Wednesday 3rd April 2024 and includes 72 hours of live online sessions delivered as 2 x 3 hour sessions per month. These are supported by additional online resources, guest teachers, and virtual project visits.

HOW WILL THE COURSE WORK?

It will bring together a group of people as a learning community to explore how the concepts of permaculture can be used to deepen creative practice and to bring a new ethical basis to projects, particularly in relation to ecology, natural systems and regenerative cultures.

The course focuses ecological and social design and thinks about how this can be applied in different parts of our life, particularly in relation to creative work and arts practice. It is divided into seven different modules each of which will consist of a mixture of live face-to-face teaching hours and a mix of voluntary and compulsory assignments. It is very much a participatory course including a balance of individual work and work in groups. You will also create your own design on a subject of your choice, making use of the tools that you have learned during the course.

HOW MUCH WILL THE COURSE COST?

The course will be priced at £550 (Full) and £300 (Reduced). There will also be free places available.
