About the Project

One City One Light - King's Cross is a multi-disciplinary community art project focused on highlighting issues surrounding mental health. The project will take place in King's Cross station in 2021. As part of the project, we are looking to involve local groups in the Camden borough to take part in the two-day festival. It's an amazing opportunity to give budding performing artists and young digital media entrepreneurs the chance to be involved in a professional art installation in one of the world's most iconic venues.

"...as a volunteer it’s great to be responsible for a real public art project..."

Travers’ Story
Travers volunteered as part of the technical innovation team behind our installation at Salisbury Cathedral.

This involved a working day every week for 12 months and he joined us to help with the 5 day install.

Working with 4 other college students he created the projection control system at the heart of the installation.

"...Performing in Salisbury Cathedral was an incredible experience..."

Sorcha’s Story
Sorcha volunteered as a singer for our multimedia concert in Salisbury Cathedral.

It was her first solo performance, in-front of an audience of over 600 people.

She performed on an equal platform with professionals in the industry and was given mentoring and support to ensure she was comfortable on stage.

"...I wouldn’t have been able to afford these tools without this opportunity..."

Zach’s Story
Zach’s journey as a volunteer began as a chorister singing with one of our community choirs.

Most recently he has been working alongside our media team so he can learn how to use industry standard tools. These include the Adobe CC suite, Atlassian and Ableton to name a few.

One of his favourite experiences has been learning how to use our Canon 5D camera and teaching our team a few tricks on Instagram!
