Arts Programming
Muvva Studio specialises in using visual arts to dissect contemporary cultural discourse.
We create custom designed workshops, curriculums, interventions and art making experiences. Creative expression facilitates a means to dissect and explore the personal, cultural and political worlds.
From women's co-ops in rural Brazil to Sex Education workshops with parents in north London, Muvva Studio works at the intersection of creative arts and contemporary feminism.
