Autumn 2024

Art and storytelling classes for 5-12 year olds, and their parents/guardians

September – December 2024

These tales will take us on imaginary journeys from Asia Minor, to India and Africa, as we greet the coming of autumn with tales of rebirth and transformation. Children will learn the techniques of drawing faces, human and animal figures, and exploring paint and colour.

ArtStory classes combine visual art and storytelling to engage children in a range of techniques of drawing and painting, while listening to stories from around the world.

My child gets so into exploring the paint and he was really listening to the stories today too.

My child really enjoys them. Especially the narrative. We read and watched the Odysseus story and she discovered mythology!

It’s been such a beautiful experience for the kids and the grown-up too.

It’s been a highlight of the lockdown.

They will also learn about the ancient heroic tales of challenges and transformation from around the world, such as Oddyseus, Ishtar, Circe, The Little Mermaid, Ganesh, Anansi, Thumbelina, Aladdin and many others.

Led by a professional artist and educator Edina Husanovic, the children learn how to apply drawing and painting techniques to create unique artworks, while also discovering mythology and history of cultures from around the world.
