Every child is an artist
The problem is
how we can remain artists
once we grow up
Pablo Picasso
In collaboration with Movactor, I'm launching Art for Kids in 2025. This will take place during a school holiday. I'm working on this project with Franca Oostveen and Andrea Herkelman, both highly talented creatives with experience teaching children. Our starting point is:
Children are naturally creative and curious.
During the activity, we will view art, discuss art, and practice art.
A specific artist or style serves as the theme.
Children are proud of what they've done and created. They take their artwork home with them, where it can spark a lively conversation.
Seeing their artwork or talking about it gives them a wonderful feeling afterward. The activity will take place during a school holiday at
Gezondheidscentrum de Componist * Diepenbrocklaan 1 * Nieuwegein.
Children aged 3 to 12 are very welcome. Admission is free, and registration is not required. The calendar below shows the dates, times, and themes. Children aged 3 to 8 years may only participate if accompanied by an adult
