CHILDRENʼS FESTIVAL THINKS OUTSIDE THE BOX M.V. MOBILITY Sheffield Children’s Festival is the largest festival of its kind in the UK. Children across Sheffield are to show off their creative talents. A major event in Sheffield’s cultural calendar, the Children’s Festival will be packed full of fun activities during June and July. The festival continues to build on its own success. Last year saw over 30,000 children, young people, parents and carers take part in the festival. The programme for this year’s events is out now and people across the city and beyond are encouraged to see what is in store and get involved. Cllr Julie Dore, Leader of Sheffield City Council said: “The Children’s Festival is all about getting involved. Not just the children who are performing or showcasing their work but parents, carers, families, everyone in the city. “The festival works on many levels so families, parents and siblings can get involved too. For over 20 years the Children’s Festival has been giving children a chance to get involved in the arts. Over the years well over a quarter of a million children, young people and families have

taken part in Sheffield Children’s Festival. That is a staggering number of people so pick up a programme and make sure you find out what all the fuss is about.” The festival runs from Monday 18 June until Saturday 14 July 2012 and includes exhibitions, performances, workshops and family events at venues across the city. Schools have already been busy rehearsing and creating artwork in preparation. The festival kicks off with Camp Cardboard which will see children building houses, dens, streets, telephones, cars, horses, just about anything out of cardboard. Schools across the city have already made their ideas a reality and now families can join in the fun at the Winter Garden on Saturday 23 June. Sheffield Children’s Festival gets children working with professional artists and performers and showcases their creative talents. The combination of this, and having their work showcased inspires Sheffield children, giving memorable experiences, raising confidence and aspirations. This year’s festival is being sponsored yet again

by VINCI Construction UK. Regional Director Keith Shivers said: “It is an honour for VINCI Construction UK to support Sheffield Children’s Festival, the largest in the country. We have a genuine interest in education in the city and as well as our successful partnership with Sheffield City Council on the transformational Building Schools for the Future programme it is great to support the stars of the future too. There is so much going on in the city and the Children’s Festival provides yet another way for families to get involved.” The festival’s family programme is funded by Arts Council England. The festival programme is out now and available at your local library, children’s play centres, shops, cafes, theatres, the Winter Garden and venues across the city or you can find it online at www. sheffieldchildrensfestival. org You can also follow the festival on Twitter for updates @ChildrensFest or follow #sheffculture for updates on all things cultural in the city.
