Process not Product through PSCWA

Provided by Educators at the Art Gallery of Western Australia


This program will offer carers an alternative approach to art making with young children. A 45 minute interactive workshop in the Art Gallery with an Educator will build confidence in using arts language to describe artworks. This workshop will include strategies that will engage and encourage art responses in young children. This will be followed by a 1.5hour practical art activity that will enhance art making skills and explore the benefits of a process-driven approach. Carers will participate in observational drawing, colour mixing and explore space in composition.


All participates we also receive a copy of ‘Just Imagine, a Children’s Guide to the Art Gallery of Western Australia’ as long as stocks are available. Once a early childhood professional from your services attends a workshop at the Art Gallery the PSCWA can then offer customised PD to your individual service so all staff can be involved in learning more about creative arts. For further information please call PSCWA.
