Global creative and design studio Acrylicize is behind JOY, a major new two-day creative festival taking place on 19–20 June at their East London HQ, The Art House. From creating bespoke installations for brands like Spotify and LinkedIn to championing community through public art, Acrylicize has spent the past two decades reimagining how creativity shapes space and identity. JOY is their boldest step yet — a new annual festival that brings together artists, designers, brand leaders, and cultural thinkers from around the world. It's also an opportunity to dive into the studio's work and practice. 

Anchored by its mission, ‘The Joy of Expression’, the studio has evolved into a powerful creative force, and The Art House now functions as a multifaceted cultural venue, working studio, gallery, and artist residency all in one.

JOY will include talks, workshops, performances and immersive moments across two packed days. The roster includes Verity Babbs, Helmut Smits, Harriet Richardson, Auntie Flo, Charlie Boyden, Wilfrid Wood, Holly Hendry, Montañera, and many more — all contributing to a powerful, multidisciplinary exploration of creative identity, collaboration, and risk-taking through a playful lens.
