Access Creative College London welcomed Bwoy Wonder to their Whitechapel campus to deliver a workshop to young creatives interested in music and the performing arts. Bwoy Wonder, Creative Director for Mandem Clothing and a fashion designer who owns two streetwear labels and has created pieces for globally renowned names such as Pharrell, Will.I.Am and Kanye West, stopped by the campus to deliver a workshop on Professional Development to students.
Speaking about why he delivers workshops to young people, Bwoy Wonder said “One of my proudest moments with young people is watching them become what they thought was unobtainable, going through the learning process and coming out the other side as fully fledged entrepreneurs and honest citizens of society.”
During the workshop, students listened to a talk on building a career, finding inspiration and utilising aspiration for success. They were then asked to create a hoodie design based on the theme ‘from the ground up’. Students pitched their design with the winning pitch being made into a real item of clothing and presented to the student.
The workshop was offered to students as part of an ongoing enrichment programme, designed to compliment Access Creative College’s curriculum and instil life and career skills, confidence and ambition in the cohort of young creatives.
“I learned that it is ok to be my own person and to put myself out there by knowing how to approach people with confidence. This talk opened my eyes to other areas I never thought of before such as budgeting, finance and the importance of Maths and English” – Billy Cook, ACC London Games Development Student.
