This series of talks explore some of London’s newest and most exciting art and design districts: Park Royal (North Acton), Trinity Buoy Wharf (Canning Town), Stratford, Peckham, Shoreditch. I will share my experience of visiting open studios and discovering the fascinating mix of new developments, historic industrial spaces and evolving architecture that gives each area its unique character. You can book the entire series, or I can make a summary of the key features in one presentation. Each talk lasts 1 hour, including time for Q&A's.

Roberta’s love for art and architecture borders on "obsession"—and she’s happily embraced it! Her special passion lies in Modernist architecture, which led her to earn a Graduate Certificate with distinction in History of Art and Architecture from Birkbeck University. That was actually her second degree—her first career is in Economics, with over 20 years of experience in the fast-paced world of financial markets. Now, she channels her energy into making art and architecture not just informative, but fun, relatable and engaging for everyone. She’s the founder of Art Tours with a Theme – ART wiT, a London-based project offering themed tours and talks that bring the city’s creativity to life. You can follow her curated art and architecture adventures on Instagram @artwit_london and Facebook @artwitlondon.
