School Holidays Two Day Art Camp
Event description
Ages 7 to 14 | 10AM to 3PM | April 23rd & 24th
Two Day Art Camp
Your child is invited to two content-packed, yet relaxed and mindful school holidays workshop days, at the beautiful Tamworth Community Centre. Drop the kids off for five hours each day, and they will have plenty of opportunity to learn, play and improve their skills with dedicated, experienced artistic educators; a wide array of high quality artistic resources and materials; access to fresh air and exercise in a grassy courtyard, and opportunities to socialise.
Six Art Classes In Two Days
Kids will have the option to attend 6 different workshops from professional artists over the two days:
Day 1
10AM - 11AM: Clay sculpture
11:30-12:30: Loom weaving
1PM to 2PM: Drawing manga-inspired faces and characters
Day 2
10AM - 11AM: Make a manga
11.30AM - 12.30PM: Outdoor painting & drawing
1PM to 2PM: Create a collage landscape
We understand that not every class is for every kid, and so kids also have the option to...
Choose Your Own Adventure
Use the schools resources, such as figures, books and materials, to make a masterpiece your own way, while enjoying the company of other little artists and guidance of the teaching artists.
End of the day
The final portion of the day will be used to finish off artworks, tidy up and get ready to show off what was made to parents and carers.
Exercise Breaks & Games
We understand kids can only concentrate for so long at a time - so, every hour, we give them the chance to completely forget what they're doing, and run and play outside for twenty minutes or so. When they return, they have the option to continue what they were doing, or focus on new skills. This combination of variety, choice and rest allows kids' minds to stay fresh and engaged over long periods of time.
The Community Centre has a large grassy courtyard, with shady trees, where the kids can play with provided bats, balls, skipping ropes, etc, or just enjoy a snack under the shade of the trees. We will also occasionally run exercise and drama games throughout the breaks.
Food
Light food provided, such as sliced fruit and bottled water.
