ART-icle 12: Empowering Very Young Voices through the Arts
Saturday 17 May, 10.30am - 12.30pm
Project Room, Level 3, dlr LexIcon, Dún Laoghaire
Families with very young children under six years with physical disabilities are invited to engage in a practical multi-sensory visual art workshop designed for them by early years artist Helen Barry in collaboration with early years educator Audrey Fagan and the children attending the Central Remedial Clinic School. This workshop invites the children and their families to explore the world of ‘Under The Sea’ through paint, colour, mark making, movement, music and sound. A specialised care team will support families to engage in all elements of the morning.
Engagements are FREE of charge. The engagements are aimed at children up to 6 years with a physical disability as their primary need. Siblings are welcome but parents need to be aware that the engagement will not focus on the sibling.
Contact arts@dlrcoco.ie or (01) 2362759 for more information and to book a space.
