Culture Dose for Kids

SEEN Swansea is inviting children aged 9-12 who are experiencing mild anxiety to take part in this 8-week art program

Culture Dose for Kids

We would like to invite children between the ages of 9 and 12 who are experiencing mild anxiety to participate in an 8-week art program. The program will take place in a small group setting at SEEN at Swansea, where participants will draw inspiration from art works at from the art museum collection. This program, called Culture Dose for Kids, is free and subsidised for parents and caregivers and is developed by AGNSW. The program is delivered by an art therapist and is aimed at improving the wellbeing of primary school-aged children who experience mild anxiety.

Parents/caregivers will also participate in this calming and engaging program in both separate and combined sessions.

Engagement with the arts can help young people connect to their feelings, thoughts, and imagination. It can build self-confidence and resilience, foster social connections and improve mental health and wellbeing.

The program will provide a safe, structured space for young people and their parents/carers to engage with and respond creatively to three curated artworks led by an experienced team.

What to expect

Participants (adults and children) will visit SEEN each week for a 2-hour workshop over 8 weeks. It is important to note that the program has been designed for adults and children to participate together.

Who can participate?

Young people (with their parent/carer) will be eligible to participate if they:

Are between the ages of 9 to 12 in primary school.

Are able to travel to SEEN at Swansea

You (the parent or caregiver) believe your child experiences mild anxiety*

*Anxiety itself is a normal emotion. However, some young people worry more than others, either through a greater number of worries or more frequent or intense worries.
