DR ‘DANCE’ PETER LOVATT<br />

Dr Peter Lovatt - Dr Dance blew the roof off<br />

A big part of what we do is provide<br />

inspiration by running events around<br />

the UK to launch <strong>STEAM</strong> <strong>Co</strong>.<br />

REGIONAL LAUNCHES<br />

These events may be run over<br />

one or two days where children and<br />

their teachers and parents from<br />

local schools get the chance to try a<br />

<strong>STEAM</strong> <strong>Co</strong>. Day run by local creatives.<br />

We also hold a series of short talks<br />

which are filmed <strong>for</strong> use at other<br />

briefing events.<br />

#ARTCONNECTS<br />

We held our first annual national<br />

three day event in Kings Cross - the<br />

#ARTCONNECTS Festival of Creative<br />

Schools, Work and Lives.<br />

The Friday saw hundreds of local<br />

primary children come in <strong>for</strong> a <strong>STEAM</strong><br />

<strong>Co</strong>. Day sponsored by the Creative<br />

Agency Havas. A range of fantastic<br />

creative activites were on offer.<br />

On the Friday evening we held a<br />

screening of ‘Most Likely To Succeed’<br />

at the British Library.<br />

The most inspiring line up of<br />

speakers - teachers, parents,<br />

creatives, business people took to<br />

the stage on the Saturday.<br />

We heard from primary and<br />

secondary schools that value<br />

creativity, how important creativity is<br />

to the economy and the threat of A.I<br />

and robots.<br />

“IF YOU BELIEVE IN THESE TEACHERS AND<br />

THESE KIDS, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE”<br />
