Kids’ Own is delighted to announce that we are one of the lucky recipients of the Creative Ireland Climate Action fund!
We will be using the funds from the award on a new project called “Four Seasons in Our Garden: A Yearbook. Working with Cranmore Coop in their garden over four seasons from winter 2023 to Autumn 2024, we will be joined by an intergenerational group, comprised of children and older generations from Sligo town, who will work alongside visual artists and scientists.
The group will explore questions and solutions connected to the biodiversity crisis and consider the role of the arts in tackling the climate crisis. We will investigate new sustainable arts practices to ensure that the art created together is truly innovative, sustainable and has the power to be part of change.
