No Decisions About Us Without Us

An exhibition by year 5 students from Barton Primary School, as part of Artswork’s Young Cultural Changemaker programme.

Tue 28 January Mon 24 February

Tues 28th Jan – Mon 24th Feb

To coincide with the Isle of Wight Story Festival, this exhibition of work by year 5 children at Barton Primary School, is about giving children the platform to advocate for the issues they care about, whether this be safe places to play, caring for the environment, being kind to others – or just giving children a say in decisions that affect them.

The exhibition represents the first phase of a larger project focusing on literacy, oracy and advocacy where the children are working with creatives Jess Ong and Adam Gaterell to get their message across through performance poetry, cartooning, songwriting and visual arts.

It is part of Artswork’s Young Cultural Changemaker programme on the Isle of Wight, which empowers young people to make a difference to their communities through creativity, and is supported by Government funding through Arts Council England.

DONATE TO QUAY ARTS

Even a little money can make a big difference at Quay Arts

Did you realise that when you buy a cup of freshly ground barista coffee in our Café Bar, you are helping to support the cultural life of the Isle of Wight?

However, the generosity of our supporters goes beyond sales of food, drink and theatre tickets. Gifts of money, time, and even specific items make a huge difference to the amount of work we can do. Together, we can continue to enrich the lives of islanders and visitors with our fantastic programme of events.
