Client Overview.
The New West End Company, in collaboration with the Royal Academy of Arts, organises Art in Mayfair, an annual creative showcase that blends fashion, art, and culture. This partnership transforms Bond Street and Mayfair into an open-air gallery, marking the arrival of summer in London while celebrating the city’s luxury boutiques and artistic heritage.
The Challenge.
To complement the prestigious Art in Mayfair showcase, The New West End Company wanted a podcast series that would spotlight the artists and their work while enhancing the event’s visibility. The podcast needed to resonate with art enthusiasts and visitors, offering insights into the creative process and the cultural significance of the showcased pieces.
