South East Bridge News Update
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the latest edition of the South East Bridge enews.
March sees the completion of a range of programmes in which Artswork has invested over the last 1 to 3 years. The related projects that have been delivered as a result have often involved many different partners and stakeholders, and all have aspired to better connect children and young people with great arts and culture.
This month we have reports and reflections from the Six Ways to Wellbeing project in Kent and the Rose Bruford College-led Dream - the Joy of Creating and Dream Machine. Alongside these, we have reviews of the Learn Teaching School Alliance Celebration of Dance and Soundwaves (part of our Teaching School Investment Programme), a project that engaged children and young people simultaneously in science and sound.
As part of our libraries engagement work, we have been working with ten libraries across the South East, supporting them as they develop their Arts Award practice. We also have an update from Arts Council England and Trinity College London on the upcoming changes to Artsmark: an exciting remodelling that will be rolled out over the next year.
Thank you for subscribing and see you all next month!
