Kitted for Culture
Design and print on the RISO your own football shirt designs inspired by cultural identity and self-expression. Using a zine full of creative prompts, you’ll play with patterns, colours, and symbols to make something that represents who you are and where you come from. It’s a celebration of heritage, creativity, and pride, showing that visual language tells powerful stories, and that there’s more to football than just playing the game.
