Magazines by Kids for Kids: Half term course

We are interested in looking at the content that is produced for children’s magazines and asking children to cast a critical eye over the things supposedly produced for them. We will then ask them design their own visual magazine that will be printed professionally.

Ania Bas will lead our half term course which will focus on making a magazine by kids for kids

I went to Ania Bas working space at Open School East to experiment with the skills and ideas we will work on with the children.

Screen Printing is just one of the many skills we will use during a fun packed 2 days of creativity.

Prints can also be made from the cut out pieces.

Positive and negative prints can be made.
