“Every new session is a learning curve and I enjoyed every minute of it.” Liam, trainee music leader
How do you engage young people with sustainability and recycling? With such a range of waste materials available, we often find that schools are excited about ways to take junk modelling and sustainable art to a new level. In November, Daisi artist @jameslakesculpture worked with Year 10 students at @torquayacademy to create three dimensional portraits from cardboard. As part of their GCSE project on identity, the project highlighted the need for sustainable practice across all topics and not only environmental themes.

We work with young people, their families and communities to create opportunities to take part in the kinds of arts activities that have a real and lasting effect.
