The Ark @ Home is a series of at-home arts activities and experiences for children aged 2-12, including online streams of live performances, virtual events and installations, and arts activity worksheets.

The Ark believe in every child's right to art and culture. Generally, this means visits to their beautiful building to see shows, exhibitions and concerts, or to take part in hands-on workshops. Now though, while their audience of children, parents and teachers are all at home, they want to share the work of some of the brilliant Ark artists online and offer new ways for children to connect with some of those performances and workshops while at home.

They will be releasing new arts activities and resources for children daily via ark.ie and The Ark's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages @TheArkDublin. Take a look at this week's full programme of activities here.

Please share these resources with your children, with their teachers and any others who can benefit from them so that we can reach as many children as possible.
