Under 6 sessions

Welcome to the under 6 sessions

 

This is a 5-week block session for children under 6 to become acquainted with fine art in a very digestible and easy-going way. The sessions will only be 1 hour long and the philosophy behind it will be mainly exploratory. For example, I wonder what would happen if I throw paint on the floor🤔.

The 5 block session will allow there to be enough time to work out if your child enjoys the sessions.

The sessions will be held on Tuesday at 10am-11am at The Hive Barking, 2 Victoria Rd, Barking, Ilford IG11 8PY.

Session cost £50
