Come join us for a very special screening of PROJECT WILD THING - the hilarious, real-life story of one man's determination to get children out and into the ultimate, free wonder-product: Nature.

Sunday 24th November
16.30 - 19.00 pm

The LEXI Cinema
194b Chamberlayne Rd,
Kensal Green,
London
NW10 3JU

Book your tickets http://thelexicinema.co.uk/bookings/?event=zgy7r7 - there are only 75 seats, so you might need to be quick off the mark.

The wonderful Innocent Drinks for Kids is sponsoring this community screening with afternoon tea, cake and, of course, juice!

There will be a Q&A after the screening with PROJECT WILD THING Director David Bond and other guests tbc.

Join us in The Chamberlayne pub afterwards to carry on the conversation with a drink in hand.

The film launches a major campaign to reconnect British children with nature, supported by THE WILD NETWORK, a brand new collaborative movement of over 300 charities and corporations and over 4,000 individuals. www.projectwildthing.com/thewildnetwork

All proceeds from the film release go to THE WILD NETWORK.

Look forward to seeing you there!

Multimedia excitement in the studio as Leonora also features in this fantastic documentary as the designer of the Out & About pack - just one of many ideas on how to reconnect kids with nature. Check it out at independent cinemas around the country. "This film will change your life." So says The Guardian, and they're right you know!

Excited to say Leonora's work is featured as a case study in this new book by Aaris Sherin on design thinking in sustainability. Elio Studio is highlighted as an example of flexible collaborative working on challenging social and environmental innovation projects.

Here's a lovely blog post from Tallulah Rendall on her experience of playing a gig in our studio a few weeks ago. It was an evening of beautiful creative connections. Just what the Hive was designed for!

The host of this evening’s event was artist/writer/journalist/designer/general all round creative innovator Leonora Oppenheim and an incredible supporter. In 2008 Leonora began her support by writing...
