With school holidays and a long weekend at home looming, Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre (CPAC) are coming to the rescue with an ongoing series of free online programming to keep kids and families entertained over the coming weeks and months.
Kids activities will be a focus with the CPAC team rolling out their usual school holiday programming online. Comic creations, Claymation, drawing, science and art classes will all be made available online for free. Families can join in and be part of the program, with a series of worksheets available for kids to use in the online workshops.
The series of online experiences also has plenty for grownups, including exhibitions, backstage curatorial tours, interviews with artists, podcast recordings, an online market, cooking classes with CPAC’s resident chef Frederico Rekowski, edible gardening tips with in-house gardener Lauren Booth and much more.
CPAC Director Craig Donarski said: “We know that people staying at home with their kids will be searching hard for activities to keep them happy over the school holiday period, and indeed beyond. Our kids workshops are designed to be entertaining, engaging and educational and will hopefully relieve a bit of pressure for the parents and guardians.”
To get involved, sign up to the CPAC newsletter at casulapowerhouse.com and keep an eye on the CPAC social media channels where information and parts of the programming will go live.
The CPAC newsletter will provide a weekly digest of when the various programming is dropping as well as sharing what other arts institutions, creatives and educators from around the world are doing in the digital space for you to participate in.
More than just pushing out content, CPAC is encouraging people to share what they are doing during their time at home. What are you making or cooking, what are your pets up to or are you reading a good book that you’re desperate to share? The CPAC team wants to hear, see and share your experience online with the community they are creating.
