New POP UP ART SCHOOL

Following on from the success of the 'Pop-Up Art School' last April, the Pre-Service PGCE /CE Art & Design group are facilitating another exciting event!

An Autumn 'Pop-Up Art School' is to be held in conjunction with the Huddersfield Comtemporary Music Festival and Huddersfield Art Gallery.

Wednesday 24th November 2010, Huddersfield Art Gallery, 2.15 - 4.30pm

The theme and focus will be on the work of John Cage, and the PGCE/CE trainees will facilitate art activities inspired by Cage's art work and music. The gallery is hosting a prestigious travelling exhibition of Cage's art work entitled Every Day is a Good Day providing a great setting for the 'Pop Up Art School'. The Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival is featuring several of Cage's musical compositions this year, and 2 pieces will be perfomed by musicians in the art gallery itself during the event. It promises to be a fascinating and multi-sensory experience.

POP UP ART SCHOOL

Welcome to The Pop Up Art
School!

A documentation in words and images of the progress of the
"PopUp Art School!"

We are calling for people to come to our Free Pop Up Art School at the University of Huddersfield on 12th April 2010.

We are a group of art trainee teachers with a focus on encouraging participation in the arts. The Pop Up Art school emphasises the process and uniqueness of 'making', and encourages all ages to experiment, with the achievable and fun workshops we have on offer.

There will be artists talks and a showcase of music and visual displays (and tea and biscuits!)

Come and connect with your inner creativity, and have Fun!

Suitiable for all ages
