Winter Light At-Home Art Activities
To encourage children to look at and appreciate the winter season through art making, we have made a series of at-home art activities to accompany our Winter Light programme.
These worksheets have been designed to inspire children to create their own winter-themed artworks, opening up many opportunities for self-expression. They can be used without having seen our Winter Light exhibition, however we would encourage you to view our Winter Light Online Gallery of the artworks here and then complete the activities.
While most of the activities are suitable for all ages – and a good opportunity for the whole family to work together – you may want to choose or adapt the activities that best suit your children’s age and level.
