The countdown has begun! A week today we will be hosting the RIBA Northern Soul Charrette.
In the lead up to our EVENTS week, if you come across any creative pamphlets, leaflets or other hand outs, keep hold of them. They may come in useful when it comes to how you decide to present the activities of next Friday's gathering of 13 Northern Schools of Architecture
Watch this space for more daily updates in the lead up to the big event next week...

With our EVENT based around the RIBA Northern Soul Charrette Day, taking place on the 20th April 2018, the rest of the two week period will be spent marketing and conveying what took place during the day, in the best possible, creative and imaginative way you can think of.
Be it through a film,
Be it through a blog,
Be it through a publication.
Ahead of the fortnight, look into fun and different ways to market the process and results of the Design Charrette, through the various media options above.
We cannot wait to see your ideas!

A big part of our EVENTS program this year is to digitally communicate and curate the activities taking place, both during the official Northern Soul Charrette Day organised by RIBA, as well as during the EVENTS fortnight.
If you have any digital skills you are particularly strong at and enjoy using or that you would like to learn or develop further, let one of the team know, so we can help you broaden your capabilities alongside the fun program we have planned for you.
Happy Easter!

To our Northern Soul Charretters!
A quick update to let you know we will be taking you all on a quick tour around the city to take inspiration from the secret hideaways that Manchester has to offer. Digging a little deeper below the surface can turn up some surprising finds which will hopefully assist you all in curating the final exhibition.
Remember to bring a good pair of walking shoes. We're really looking forward to meeting you all!
