Due to the success of our previous Autumn project, Leeds City Art Gallery and Leeds Music Education Partnership (LMEP) have teamed up once again to bring you an immersive Arts project which all schools can register a class for during the summer term. This FREE Art and Music project is aimed at KS2 and KS3 children and will take place in Leeds Art Gallery on selected dates in the summer term.

Project outline:

• This project will link Art activities with music composition and improvisation through a common theme.
• Leeds Art Gallery will host an online gallery visit for each visiting school, and introduce the themes of the visit and provide interactive activities prior to the session at the Gallery.
• A morning or afternoon visit for a designated class to the Art gallery either on Friday 28th June or Friday 12th July, which will include an opportunity to make music and art in the gallery space, and gives the chance for children to explore the latest Art exhibition at the gallery.

The project is fully funded by Leeds Art gallery and LMEP, and you will be able to get support with transport costs to the Art Gallery via LMEP’s innovative grant. Two-form entry schools are welcome to take part. To register your interest, please email LMEP.ArtForms@leeds.gov.uk and state your preferred date.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact Sarah Truscott at LMEP.ArtForms@leeds.gov.uk or Amanda Philips Amanda.Philips@leeds.gov.uk.
