Here at Islington Arts Factory we believe that creativity is an essential part of life and all of our teaching progamme for children and adults alike embraces that ethos. Beyond expressing creativity though, taking art classes has countless benefits for children, not only enjoyable they can effect your child's overall development. Our classes are taught by practising professional artists who pass on their skills to the children. Our sessions are longer than an average school art session and we develop projects over a number of weeks, allowing your child to work on ambitious pieces in a sustained way.
Problem Solving
Working creatively utilises imagination and inventiveness which aids in developing problem solving skills and decision making.

Creative Expression
Your child will learn the visual language to express themselves creatively in a non-verbal way. Art can say many things that words cannot and allows for a unique form of self expression

Children will learn that if they work hard their work will be celebrated. Islington Arts Factory' MakeArt Exhibition showcases the work that the children have produced during the year for family, friends and distinguished guest such as the Mayor of Islington.

Motor Skills
Working with a variety of different materials, both 2D and 3D has a profound effect on a child's motor skills. Working on large scale work can improve perspective and spatial awareness.

Self Evaluation
In Art there is no right or wrong, we encourage children to think critically about their own work, taking the lead in completing their own vision. This leads to a higher standard of work and an increased understanding from your child.

Feedback
They will benefit from receiving constructive feedback in class, both from their peers and the art tutor. Learning to take feedback on board is essential for success in later life.
