STEAM Powered Big Draw Festival at the De La Warr Pavilion

Yesterday I ran a session for teachers/creative practitioners at the Hastings Museum & Art Gallery during the Hastings & Rother Arts Education Network meeting. I'm working for the amazing De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill, creating activities for the STEAM Powered Big Draw Festival (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Maths). We are offering a twilight CPD session for teachers on the 3rd October, 4pm-6pm, covering classroom activities, curriculum links & teachers notes using STEAM & Fiona Banner's Buoys Boys exhibition as stimulus.

Join us for the STEAM Powered Big Draw Festival drop-in, running Saturday 22nd & Sunday 23rd October from 12 noon - 4pm.
