Youre invited to Reflections from the Loom, an art exhibition by children of Beecroft Gardens School.
Date: 03/10/2024 – 03/10/2024
Time: (All day)
Every year
the National Gallerys Take One Picture scheme for primary schools focuses on
a painting from the collecting to inspire cross-curricular learning in primary
classrooms. http://www.takeonepicture.org
This year it
is Penelope with the Suitors, about 1509, by Pintoricchio. During January the
whole of Beecroft Gardens School, from Nursery to Year 6, explored this painting in many exciting
ways. Textile, collage, sculpture and
music were used to branch out in many directions and come together to create an
inspiring exhibition.
This
exhibition has allowed the school to transform their hall into a real art
gallery, to explore traditional and contemporary art on a grand scale!
There will
also be a chance for visitors to interact with a giant loom!
The school very much
look forward to sharing this with you so that you too can experience the
exceptional way that Beecroft Garden gives such a large platform to the arts.
