Art in a box

Everything you need for 8 people to take part in an arts activity, posted to you...'in-a-box'

Now available to buy priced between £17-£22 including postage.

Art Shape worked with local, professional artists to demonstrate the activities and share their creative techniques with you. Art Shape have traditionally supplied artists with the skills to teach art activities in care homes and family centres in Gloucestershire but without funding these sessions could be prohibitively expensive.

These boxes are the solution; they can be posted out so that anyone, without any training, can run the sessions themselves. All Art-in-a-Boxes cost less than £22 including postage so they are ideal for activity coordinators in residential and care homes, youth club leaders, play scheme leaders and even busy mums for children’s parties (supervision required and over 5yrs recommended).

You can purchase the boxes by:

sending a cheque with your order to:- Art Shape Brockworth Court Farm Court Road Brockworth Gloucester GL3 4QU,

Call the office on 01452 863855 or use our online contact form if you prefer us to invoice your organisation.

The original project to create these boxes was funded by the Big Lottery.
