Kids-patch is an interactive audio-visual program for children presenting a completely intuitive, inventive and forward-thinking approach to children’s education in the context of arts and culture. Each event consists of a series of workshops for kids aged 5-12, related to the fields of music, graphic art, performance, creative processes and new media. It is a 100% participatory program. Closely working with established and experienced artists, children are discovering numerous new skills and are developing sensibilities in regard to the processes of creation and presentation of creative content.
At the end of the workshop different musical formations will be combined and children, will present what they have practiced and learned through a concert and group improvisation .
Participation is limited to 20. Sign up by sending an email to: education [at] gaffta.org
