Pupils at Chisenhale Primary School are committed participants of the Arts Award. For several years the school’s programme has been led by artist Sara Heywood and run in partnership with Chisenhale Art Place.
To enrich their experience, the children are given a special opportunity to visit working artists in their studios and to talk directly with them – this year they visited Kate Hardy, a founding member and Alina Kisina, who is one of the newest.
At the end of their project, the children held an exhibition at Chisenhale Art Place, inviting the whole school plus parents and studio artists.
