CLASS TIME

Talking to the tutor, out idea for a campaign will not be enough to make a sustained and impactful difference, our sanctuary idea could be incorporated to create impact, but will have to be carefully refined as to not make people feel like a spectacle.

We thought of having an event, bringing in artists to create sensory art installations that people can interact with. This event will act as a vehicle to roll out our booklets and posters, promoting little things that people can do during their day to clear and relax their minds. This will ensure a sustained influence and difference made to our target audience and others.
The event will also connect our audience with their families which is one of our main aims to achieve.
