Children’s Sculpture Courses: Adventures In Material & Space

Short-Courses for Children Aged 6 – 11
Warwick Preparatory School, Banbury Road, Warwick, CV34 6PL

Run in school half-term and holidays, this series of three-day short courses for children aged 6 – 11 focus on creative thinking and technical skills development in the expanded field of contemporary sculpture.

Adopting a sensorial approach, we will give the children freedom to form new relationships with materials via tactile activities that revolutionise their ideas into sculpture. Teaching how to communicate through the language of three-dimensional form, we will encourage expression through sculpture and design. By igniting imagination and playfulness, we will harness the children’s creativity by allowing freedom of thought in an enabling and inclusive environment, creating opportunities for discovery in materials and sculpture.

Led by Artist & Educator Lauren Cooke, this course is influenced by her experience and training in the Montessori pedagogy, with a focus on movement and sensorial stimuli.
