Arts for Juniors
is one of ThinkArts’ flagship programmes running since 2018 in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Kolkata / Max Mueller Bhavan.
This programme is an initiative for children to engage with, discover, and explore the world of art, music, and books through a range of diverse, exciting activities. These sessions have been offered online and offline, in Kolkata and to other cities, in the Eastern region of India. These sessions are designed not to ‘teach an art form’ but to acquaint children with different artists and authors, share their inspirations and in the process spark imagination and encourage the participants to explore their own creativity. Arts for Juniors has travelled to cities such as Bokaro, Mawphlang, Patna, Ranchi, and more, offline, and dozens of cities throughout India, online. The sessions typically focus on ages 8 and above - Arts for Juniors for ages 8 to 12, and AFJ - Teen editions. The success of this programme led to similar engagements being explored in a different form - KinderKunstKiste (K3) is an example. |
