Two Day Summer School 8-11s

• Two days: Tuesday 5th & Wednesday 6th August

• 10 AM – 2 PM each day

• Ages 8–11 

This summer, young creators are invited to an exciting two-day digital art camp led by experienced facilitator Graham Ginty. Packed with hands-on workshops and screen-based creativity, this summer school is perfect for kids aged 8–11 who love art, storytelling, tech or just trying something new.

Over two fun-filled days, participants will explore four creative practices:

• Lego Stop Motion Animation – Build characters and film your own frame-by-frame Lego movie using iPads and pro animation apps.

• Music Production – Create original tracks by mixing beats, melodies, and sound effects on easy-to-use digital music software.

• Digital Drawing – Design vibrant digital art using iPads and stylus pens, with custom brushes, layers and colour tools.

• Visual Effects (VFX) – Add movie-style magic with fun visual effects - think fireballs, magic spells and epic action scenes.

Each day is designed to be fun, collaborative and packed with creativity. All equipment, including iPads, stylus pens, headphones, tripods and more, are provided.
