After our first podcast last week with Matthew Taylor of The RSA you might not think it could get better, but it does here.

We're on a mission to understand the challenges and issues behind the looming creativity crisis in our schools, work and lives so who better to speak to than a man who has been a teacher and headteacher who was recognised by UNESCO for his work turning a failing school around.

His secret? Making every day, every moment in the school like a day at Disneyland by creating experiences, repackaging learning and connecting with their community.

Add to that the fact that he's shared a stage with Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple as well as the Dalai Lama and Richard Branson, interviewed Eric Schmidt of Google and his work with Obama, well you'd better listen to believe that story.

It call came about because, after ten years working with companies and organisations from Columbia to Canberra and Cornwall,  Richard has just published his latest book 'Education: A Manifesto for Change' and sent us a sneak peak. 

It's brilliant.  

It's about Collaboration.

It's why, in our #ARTof... series, we called this Podcast The #ARTofTheVILLAGE

Because as we've always said 'It Takes a Village to Inspire a Child'

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
