"SPART" - putting the art into sport!
At the beginning of August we provided arts activities for 300 children as part of the Seashell Trust's Children's Able and Disabled Sports (CADS) week. Activities ranged from making floating ducks and colourful figures from materials that are easily found around the house, to creating sports-themed jigsaw arts. See more photos...

Same Difference is an exciting International Service project devised by award-winning artist, Ross Georgeson.
The project aims to use art and creativity workshops to boost the confidence and self-esteem of children living with HIV/AIDS, conflict, disability and extreme poverty in each of International Service’s programme countries. The idea is to make a series of collaborative art exhibitions of children’s work, culminating in a touring exhibition and creative workshops in the UK bringing development awareness messages to the public.
If you are interested in hosting the Same Difference exhibition please contact Barry Perks: barry@internationalservice.org.uk
The exhibition is very flexible and can configured to fit almost any available space! More details...
