  • Visual arts workshop for children with SEND (1)

    • We are offering a series of free art workshops for children with SEND, in partnership with Ignite Imaginations.

      This session is aimed at children aged approx. 7-11 years, but older children who enjoy “younger” activities and siblings are welcome, too! Parents or carers must stay for the entire session. A professional artist will lead the session, exploring various topics and utilising different creative skills each week to create exciting artwork and memorable experiences.

      You can attend just one session, or join us for as many sessions as you wish to get the most out of the experience.
