Early years

Five year olds are inspired by the very Long Gallery at Montacute and make their own noble self portraits….

Some autumn term dates still available for professional touring shows, workshops and CPD training available for schools bookings.

The first CPD training event from InspirED at Take Art inspires 20 practitioners in preparation for the autumn season!

Final round of our bursary opportunity of up to £100 for Early Years practitioners

KinderGardens Festival 2014 is well underway, with a fantastic first week of performances.

As part of InspirED Somerset, Take Art and Spaeda are offering a range of creative training opportunities for those working in the early years sector in Somerset.

InspirED Early Years looks forward to offering an exploration in the Reggio approach in early years.

An InspirED event as Birdsnest Theatre performed their uplifting show - Blown Away to two Somerset schools and engaged with early years teachers and practitioners.

As part of our European funded dance project, DanSCe Dialogues 2, Take Art's Early Years team were able to offer two bursaries for two freelance Early Years creative artists to attend the CONNECT Conference in Canterbury.

As part of DanSCe Dialogues 2 we would like to invite Early Years practitioners in the South West to CONNECT in Canterbury on 15-16 November, an international conference focused on dance experiences for Early Years, children and young people.

We recognise that musicians and Early Years practitioners often have specific training needs and interests. The Soundwaves bursary could help you if you live or work in the South West and are keen to find out more about a project by visiting a setting, or if you need some funding to attend a course or conference.
