I love cardboard, paper and getting people creative. These things have driven my practise for over 20 years. I work regularly with schools to transform spaces into extraordinary life-size installations from cardboard and paper... and everybody has their part to play!
My workshops, whether for children, teachers or communities, are all about encouraging us all to explore our creativity; It's a powerful skill to have. We will problem solve, express our ideas, develop our art skills, learn to work with one another.... and we will create something brilliant to inspire others!
Testimonial
Jo from Animate Arts always comes up with innovative, original and exciting cardboard and paper projects to engage children and families. The workshops always work brilliantly, particularly when they lead to a big collaborative cardboard installation. It is wonderful to see each individual child see how their unique creation contributed to something bigger and the project created a lovely collaborative atmosphere. Animate always bring such a sense of joy, kindness and community as well as curiosity and originality which makes them perfect artists to work with!
