Gillo presents 4 exclusive workshops at Akshara High School for the Pre Primary Section. Over the past 2 years we have been designing a range of workshops for little children in various disciplines of the Arts, including visual art, drama, dance & movement, music, sculpture, story-telling, etc.
These workshops are designed with special attention to the age-specific dynamics of the participants and with a focus to stimulate them through arts-based activities. The focus is stimulation, exploration and experimentation, rather than teaching skills.
Here are the workshops for April 2012. If you are interested in hosting similar workshops at your space, please do contact us at gillo.gilehri@gmail.com
