Art Kits
During lockdown and beyond, Studio Meraki are supporting and inspiring our local community with the creation and distribution of Art Kits to families who might be finding life particularly difficult to navigate during the Covid-19 pandemic. Working with local organisations delivering essential support, we are sending kits out to 200 families, every week for ten weeks. Focusing on simple activities, the kits are designed by local artists to inspire creativity, develop skills, and provide a welcome distraction.
We are delighted to announce that our friends at In Bristol Studio have received Emergency CV-19 Funding from the Arts Council, this means that we are able to work in partnership with local artists to create and deliver another 200 Art Kits each week for the next ten weeks starting week commencing 28 June 2020!
Below you will find links to download easy-to-follow pdf instructions and how-to videos
presented by our guest artists so you can #GetCreativeAtHome!
Please help us to fund this project, every donation you make will go directly towards providing joyful and inspiring art materials for our kits. Each donation makes a huge difference, allowing us to offer
support to more families for longer.
With special thanks to our team of volunteers from In Bristol Studio who are making this possible, and our generous donors so far- your contributions make the world of difference!
