The Hilldrop Artistic Takeover was funded by Islington Council’s Community Chest, funded by the Ragdoll Foundation and Islington Giving in partnership with the Cripplegate Foundation.
Hilldrop Artistic Takeover activities were co-designed with the participants including creative writing, performing, filmmaking, and photography. The workshops initially began online in late April 2020 and were conducted across multiple platforms engaging young people aged 10 to 13.
From 2021, the workshops were held in person at Hilldrop Community Centre. During this time, participants created an interactive map of Tufnell Park Ward.

From 2022, the workshop expanded to two venues The Zone Youth Centre (for ages 11–14) and Hilldrop Community Centre (for ages 10–13). The groups created entries for the Everyday Fantastic film competition.
The film was ideated and developed by the participants during sessions funded by Islington Giving.
