Join us to make fungi-inspired animations through a fun, collaborative drawing activity — and learn more about the Youth Landscapers Collective.

Like fungi and plants, Youth Landscapers Collective work in close partnership. Inspired by research into mushrooms and their mycelium networks, YLC's recent project The Underneath is a collaboration between young people, artists, technicians, community groups and the forest itself.

This collaborative process was supported by Broadway's Near Now Ideas Fund, which helped YLC to take part in research and development workshops with a range of local creatives.
