We can’t keep it to ourselves anymore!
Our early years team has come up trumps with a glorious High Peak ABC book and song (for general release Spring 2023).
The work has been in creation in messy arts and music sessions since the summer, and our early years project manager, Karl Harris, said “I’ve loved this project because usually babies and toddler sessions are all about process and experience, but this has been a chance to actually produce a finished artwork for the whole community to enjoy”. He has worked with artist and reknowned illustrator, Andrea Joseph and writer and musician, Lucy Jackson, to take the first paint marks and word ideas of a new generation and turn them into music and artwork which celebrates our beautiful corner of the world.
Email sophie@highpeakarts.org to join the waiting list for pre-ordering the book, which is going to print before Christmas, but won’t be delivered until mid-February at the earliest.
Our FREE early years music sessions continue with Lucy meeting a growing group of mums, dads and grandparents at Providence Church in New Mills on a Wednesday morning. These sessions are running until 14th December – get in touch with Sophie (sophie@highpeakarts.org) to book, or to sign up for info about our plans for 2023.
