FAMILIES SOUGHT FOR ART RESIDENCY


MK Gallery seeks families from across Milton Keynes to take part in its 2018 Family-in-Residence programme. The Gallery is offering local families a unique opportunity to work with


an artist to explore their creative interests. MK Gallery learning manager Tara Page said: “As a Family-in-Residence,


your family will be supported by an MK Gallery Associate Artist over three months as you have fun imagining, experimenting and testing new ideas, materials and processes. “You will then commission your artist to put on an event – inspired by


your ideas – for your friends and other families to enjoy. Throughout your residency, your artist will help to inspire your creative thinking, explore possibilities, shape your ideas and guide your decisions. “MK Gallery’s Associate Artists are friendly and passionate about nurturing the creativity of others. They are experienced at working with a diverse range of people and ages. The artist will be specially selected to suit your family and provide a safe and positive environment for you to get creative in. The Family-in-Residence programme is flexible and tailored to meet the availability, needs and interests of the family.”


To express your family’s interest, email learning@mkgallery.org, stating who your family are and why you’d like to take part.
