APPROACH
To start a project we work closely with teachers and allied professionals to identify the theme that the work will take. Within schools this will often follow the current curriculum. We will visit the children and start to identify how to develop the theme by gauging ability range, resources and timescale. At all points our aim is for maximum inclusion and access for each child.
PHILOSOPHY
There is no pressure to develop a product. Our multi-sensory process of working creatively should be of value in itself.
Using a full range of technical resources including lighting, sound and special effects the children will be encouraged to get involved with all aspects of the workshop. They will touch, move, listen, play and create, gradually converting their workspace into an imaginary environment.

DESIGN
Our projects can be adapted for children across all ability ranges. They are sufficiently flexible to suit small specialist learning or multi ability groups, for example, affiliated mainstream schools.
DELIVERY
Sessions will take place in the children's own settings with our team of highly experienced, cross art practitioners who will lead the projects using music, drama, video and photography. They will introduce a range of multi-sensory stimuli and enable the children to explore the chosen theme in a multitude of ways.
"The installations are an exciting and special event for many of the children. Theses are well thought through and the
children benefit so much from being able to explore and engage in an environment where they can use all their senses. There is always something for everyone."
