Your Choice Your Future Poster Launch - 12/01/12


Today everybody was really excited as it was our official poster launch. Both versions of our poster are going to be exhibited in the Art Against Knives shop in Boxpark for the next two weeks which we are all really grafeful for from Katy Dawe.

We all helped to add the finishing touches to the exhibition and it looked really great. Everyone who gave speeches practiced and the rest of us were preparing for people to arrive. We even had a chance to take a few photographs before it all kicked off.

We showed the two short films that some of the group worked on about the amount of pressure that there is on young people to get involved with gang culture. They were called Pressure 1 and Pressure 2. The films looked really great and everybody commented at how professional they looked. After the short films, it was time for everyone's speeches and they were really great.

After speeches the public started to leave so we all headed out to Boxpark and handed out some of the flyers that we had specially made for the launch to draw more people in. We followed the night on Twitter, taking photo's and tweeting them as the launch went on.



There was a great show of people and the launch was an all round success. The exhibition will be running for the next two weeks at the Art Against Knives gallery in Boxpark, Shoreditch (Nearest station: Shoreditch High Street).

Thank you for all of your hard work everybody!
