Suitcase of Stories
Big Art for Little Artists
Big Art for Little Artists
“I think this project has been fantastic for the kids, just seeing them there enjoying themselves and telling stories. Since you came into the nursery she makes her own stories up at bedtimes. We even have a go at making new stories up too. She absolutely loves it.”
Parent at Chatham Nursery
Postcode
“The idea behind Postcode is to take away the prejudices based simply on your clothes and where you live…..the ‘old masters’ style is to remind older generations that they were once young too!”
Young Participant.
Legacies of Transatlantic
Slavery
“Cut Cotton Crimes-Can you
feel the Sadness in your Clothes”.
