The Master's Room, The Art Workers' Guild
Our new exhibition has now been installed - a collection of work by students taking part in our Schools Project, which is part of the Guild's Outreach Programme.
Following the success of the previous projects, over recent months the Outreach committee has been running workshops at the Sir John Heron’s Primary School in Newham, St Saviours Primary School in Walthamstow and School 360 in Stratford for children from Years 1 - 6, teaching them craft. The aims were to help the children develop their motor skills, introduce them and their families to the idea that careers in the arts are viable options for their futures, and, through the activity of making, help with their general social and emotional development.
Rachel Warr and Ruth Martin made this wonderful video of the children at School 360's work.
Our teachers were as follows:
Carolyn Gowdy - Passports for Citizens of the World
Paul Jakeman - Stone Carving
Ruth Martin & Rachel Warr - Paper Puppets
Thuyha Nguyen - Jewellery Making
The children’s work will be exhibited at the Guild in the Master’s Room from now until the end of September, and the school children made a trip to Guild on Thursday 26 June to see the exhibition and take part in a workshop together.
