Children´s Workshop Using Clay on Basic Skeletal Form

Children aged between 8 and 15 had a great time at the Lusaka Contemporary Art Centre where they explored using clay on basic skeletal form and learned about Art in the ongoing exhibition Viable Visions

Art plays a vital role in children’s early development. Art activities develop brain capacity in early childhood, it supports the development of cognitive, social-emotional, and multi-sensory skills. As children progress into primary school, upper primary school, secondary school, and beyond, art provides opportunities for brain development, mastery, self-esteem, and creativity. The process of creating, exploring, discovering, and experimenting has great value for young children.

The Lusaka Contemporary Art Centre focuses on nurturing emerging talent by encouraging self-awareness, respect, tolerance, and critical thinking.
