Illustration for the project The Pony Art Exhibition

The Pony Art Exhibition

Grown from Pony Gallery: six pieces, a wall, proper labels and a private view.

Seven activities that turn one drawing into a curated exhibition. Children practise looking, test five materials on the same shape, make a series of six pieces, write titles, labels and an artist's statement, hang the work, design a poster and hold a private view. Every activity has a harder strand for anybody who wants the stretch.
