ArtBeat!
Creative workshops for children aged between 5 and 16...
ArtBeat! is our exciting programme of holiday activities aimed at everyone aged 5-16. Drawing on the skills of our Education Service as well as freelance artists and crafts people, we provide creative workshops throughout the school holidays.
The range is enormous: drama, collage, fashion, printmaking, weaving, miniature gardening, papier mache, drumming and board games are only some of the recent offerings. Most require no previous knowledge; all are fun, imaginative sessions with enthusiastic, experienced leaders.
ArtBeat! is the perfect answer to that dreaded holiday question: ‘What shall we do today?’ Check out the programme below for yourself: if you like imagining, making and doing, you’ll love the ideas we’ve dreamt up for you.
