Teaching Programmes

Teaching art to the same group of children and young people over time can have a huge impact on their lives -  developing their artistic skills, as well as their confidence, and capacity for original and creative thought. It can also open up new opportunities for them - to pursue a career in the arts. 
 

Our team of experienced artist educators give workshops themselves, as well as supporting many other artists to lead programmes and workshops. 

Teaching Fellowship

Our Teaching Fellowship was initiated in 2015 and since 2016 has been supported by the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art.  It was imagined as a foundation course in art for young people living in Child Care Institutions, culminating in an exhibition of their work and the process of the fellowship.

There are many ways to get involved...

...as an artist, volunteer or organisation.

We teach in different spaces: Child Care Institutions, Community Centres and Government Schools, in urban and rural India.  We partner with organisations who are familiar with the children and communities, their contexts, needs, hopes and dreams.
