Drawing From Your Research
In February 2026 we delivered a free creative half day workshop exploring engaging and accessible ways to share research.
Through role play and simple storyboarding techniques, participants developed creative analogies to help practitioners and wider audiences connect more easily with their work. No artistic experience was required beyond drawing stick figures!
During the session, participants experimented with reframing complex ideas, testing explanations using analogies and visualising their research in new ways. A short readout from the day can be read here and, with participants’ permission, selected storyboard outputs and case studies will be shared here soon.
Date delivered: Tues 10 February 2026, 10:30-15:00
Location: London
Hosts: Rebecca Stevens, Simon Wells, and Andrew Darby
