Dream Arts Summer Projects – Westminster, August 22
This August, while London was reeling from the heat, we took part in a wonderful two weeks dance, music and theatre intensive in the heart of Westminster, in partnership with our partner Dream Arts. Working with local children staying in London over the summer and from families with less easy access to cultural and artistic activities, we created fantastic work weaving movement, story telling and visual arts, inviting friends and families at the end of each week to showcase the work produced. We were also supported by Wellbeing practitioners from Dream Arts which were pivotal in ensuring everyone’s engagement in the programme, and key to exploring challenging concepts such as ‘how to take part and work with each other’, ‘what is failure?’ and ‘why are arts so important to us?”. This is the third year we are working with Dream Arts, and we are hoping to continue this fruitful partnership.
