The Art Workers’ Guild
Over the summer of 2022 Outreach ran a pilot project at the Sir John Heron Primary School in Newham in which four Guild members ran sessions for children from Years 4, 5 and 6, teaching them craft. The aims were to help the children develop their motor skills, introduce them and their families to the idea that careers in the arts are viable options for their futures, and – through the activity of making – help with their general social and emotional development.
