Engage Children’s Art Week will see thousands
of children, their teachers and their families taking part in fun, creative
activities at home and in schools across three weeks in June and July. Venues of all types and sizes—from libraries to community halls, heritage
venues and country parks, schools and of course museums and galleries across the UK—are
hosting online and remote activities that will help children and young people to
be inspired, engaged and entertained by art.
This year for Children's Art Week, Inspire: Culture, Learning and Libraries will be joining in with online workshops from; the multi-talented artist Fabric Lenny, the animator and film maker Trevor Woolery, the writer and theatre maker Jayne Williams and a brilliant team of five Little Creatives artists!
