Children’s Creative Easter Holiday Workshops
Funded by The Whitstable Improvement Trust
The Horsebridge is working with the people who live on Sea Street to see if we can do something to encourage cars to slow down and to create some beautiful street artwork that will enhance the area.
We would love primary school age children to come and help us do this. The work will be inspired by how the area has changed over the time and we hope to be able to extend the project to other parts of our town.
There are eight free workshops that will work towards creating the work about the area and slowing down. They will be hosted by the wonderful Camille Serisier, a local artist with experience working as a scenic painter for large theatre companies.
Due to the popularity of these workshops, if you book and cannot come for any reason, please let us know as early as possible so we can offer a place to someone on our waiting list. Thank you.
