Arrange a Meeting – if you would like Daniel to come and to talk to you about Artisans’ schools program, he would be more then happy to do so. He is also happy to devise work to fit in with your current topic. (please use feedback page)
All our workshops involve drama and role play as a medium for learning. And all the staff at Artisans have undertaken an enhanced disclosure.

Who we are:
· Free Educational resource for the local community.
· Promoting the performing arts, in the context of local and national history.
· Understanding the arts and crafts of pre-industrialised Britain.
Visit to Artisans- we are offering an interactive experience whereby pupils can come and learn about Britain before the last century. They will be introduced to an Artisan of the past played by an actor, and will have the chance to dress up in the costumes of the period and have a hands on experience learning about the Artisan’s craft.
School based Workshop-“Time of Our Lives” - a three lesson practical workshop culminating in a showing or performance. Pupils will compare their lives today with growing up in Brixton during WWII. The lessons span over a week and involve a seminar at Artisans to meet, listen and interview a local person who was a child during the war years.
(Artisans is a non -profit organisation part funded by the Congregational Federation of Great Britain as part of the government’s Hope 08 initiative for better communities.)
