Immersive Art Week 2017

Immersive Art Week 2017

Toft Hill Primary – Bishop Auckland

In 2017 we were delighted to work with experienced artist Vicky Holborough as we once again immersed a whole school in the visual arts for a week.

With the focus on drawing – in its widest sense – from making charcoal, to drawing machines, to drawing from life, to book-binding, the pupils used the New Light Prize Exhibition as the starting point for five days of creativity!

At the end of the week, not only did the school have a permanent artwork to display, but all 102 Key Stage Two pupils completed Arts Award Discover, the introductory award of this range of unique qualifications that supports anyone aged up to 25 to grow as artists and arts leaders. Plus, over 70 Key Stage 1 pupils will have enjoyed a number of exciting art-based sessions.
