Kids’ Activity Session: ‘Tin Foil Figures’ (for ages 6–8)

Tin Foil Figures Web

30 September Saturday, 1pm–2pm

As part of our special public programming for Children’s Day, our Visitor Educators will guide children to re-imagine and recreate a fictional character of their choice using everyday materials such as tin foil, cardboard, and clay. This activity has been prepared using the approach of Social Emotional Learning, to encourage and foster children’s creative and critical thinking, and social and emotional wellbeing.

This activity session has been curated as part of the Public Programmes of the exhibition ‘The Foreigners’, on view until 22 October 2023. This programme is free and all materials will be provided. Limited spots available.
