What happens when artists in their studios collaborate virtually with children in the classroom? Our beautiful new limited edition book explores a unique model of arts in education taking place across Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Fully illustrated, Virtually There gives an insight into the creative investigations that the artists, children and teachers have embarked on together.
‘The artists are enabling the children to develop art works, in a range of media and over a sustained period of time, which are more challenging and experimental than might otherwise be approached in the school environment.’ – Roisin McDonagh, Chief Executive, Arts Council of Northern Ireland
Our new early years publication seeks to capture the essence of the sentiments, experiences and ethos that were embodied by The Lullaby Project. Through this book we invite you to slow down, tune in and engage, and to create your own space of exploration of and wonder with the babies in your care.
‘With the Lullaby project, we wanted to regenerate an interest in lullabies among early childhood educators, parents and their babies. We thought of lullabies as a way of creating relaxed, peaceful spaces where adults and babies communicate and connect at an emotional, physical and deeply human level.’ – Carmel Brennan, Head of Practice at Early Childhood Ireland
