Artworkshops is an educational consultancy based in Surrey which is dedicated to helping teachers and children get more out of the Art curriculum.  Artworkshops was established in 1997 and was previously known as J&S Workshops. We have been working in Surrey, Hampshire, Berkshire and London as independent art consultants for over 12 years and run courses for teachers in Key Stages 1 and 2, with specialist textiles courses for Key Stages 3 & 4.  We also work in schools with children and teachers, often during Arts Weeks. We have also developed extensive art and craft resources which can be purchased and used by teachers throughout the UK.

 

Our aim for teachers is:

  • To explain how to achieve 'good art practices'
  • To teach new art methods
  • To explain processes
  • To inspire new ideas and confidence in teaching
  • And to revitalise the art curriculum

 

Our work with children:

  • Generates enthusiasm for Art, Craft & Design
  • Enables them to experience new processes and materials
  • Gives them confidence and a sense of achievement by producing exciting pieces of art

 

All of our Project Teaching Packs have been developed specifically for Key Stages 1 to 3 and cover a range of exciting Art and Craft skills. They are excellent value for money and provide valuable information, guidance and support for teachers and their support staff.  You can also order CDs of all of the images in each pack to use with an interactive white board and DVDs are available to complement our Wax batik and Screen-printing packs.  Fibrecrafts produces a range of Starter Packs containing the necessary materials and equipment to get you started on each of the projects.

 

Both teachers and children will also find lots of ideas on the web site, and can view pictures of artwork created by other children in the photo galleries.  We will be happy to include your school art if you send us pictures by email.  Please confirm that you own the copyright in the photographs and that you give us permission to display the pictures on this web site. Where children are in the picture this will also require the parent's permission.

 

We hope that you find this web site to be both useful and informative. 

 

Please do not hesitate to contact us with any comments.
