Early Years Workshops: Musical Marks and Makers 26 - 27 Jan 2024

Little ones will take inspiration from music to create their own art in this fun Early Years workshop with Jane Groves as part of TradFest Children's Hub 2024.

In this joyful workshop, small children and their grown-ups will be guided to respond to music using colour and marks - wiggly or straight, dotty or zigzag.

Come along and experiment with a variety of materials to draw, paint and print the heart of the rhythm. You can also enjoy playing with some clay or making your own rain stick!

About Jane Groves

Jane Groves is a visual artist whose work is embedded in meaningful process-driven engagement and site-specific installation. Jane loves to connect people, places, and landscapes and specialises in working with young people, inspired by her own observations of nature and informed in part by many children’s lack of interaction with and vocabulary about the natural world. Jane delights in bringing her spark to very young children and their families, listening carefully and delighting in the creative response, encouraging passion, playfulness, and curiosity. Jane has worked extensively with children and communities through working with The Ark, Dublin City Council, Creativity In The Classroom, The Craft and Design Council, DLR, and many more.
