York Design Week

York Design Week explores a new collaborative, inter-perspective narrative for our city. We are a part of a landscape of creativity where we work to support, facilitate and encourage GOOD CHANGE across sectors, public, private and third sector to influence a positive shift towards Zero Carbon City status, with social justice at its core. Through a variety of interdisciplinary design led events, we invite participants to ask questions of ourselves, and of the way we live. We collectively investigate WHY things are the way they are, and we question if that is the most positive way of doing it. Our aim is to create a city of activists, who engage day to day in making stuff better, in small ways and big ways - we all have the power to shape positive change. We hope together we can move towards a shared vision of a happier, more sustainable, fairer and more creative future for our city. So if we know where we want to go, how do we want to get there? Join us for some events where we explore different ways and means of creating a city fit for future generations. York Design Week is run by a team of volunteers working across different design disciplines inside and outside York.
