This June, as part of the Ark Access Programme for Schools, illustrator Duffy Mooney-Sheppard delivered original online visual art workshops for groups of school children while they were at home due to the Covid-19 restrictions in June. Here, Duffy recounts the imagination and joy shared during these sessions.
The Ark's Early Years Artist in Residence, Joanna Parkes, explains how the travel and training element of her residency introduced her to a new mentor, and the concept of schema when supporting children’s physical development through drama and play.
