Cheshire Dance takes 150 CHALK! Activities Packs into the Community

It’s an exciting week for 150 families in Lache and Frodsham who have received Cheshire Dance CHALK! Activity Packs.

Specially designed by Dance Artist Emily from Emily O'Shea Company, these packs contain ten different activities for children and their families. All activities inspire imagination, outdoor play, drawing, writing… and, of course, dancing!

Cheshire Dance is delighted to have worked with Emily as a commissioner of these special packs, which have been funded by The Westminster Foundation and Cheshire West and Chester Council through the COVID-19 Community Response fund.

Emily will also be encouraging everyone to send in images and videos of those exploring the activities at home, which will be transformed into a special CHALK! Film to celebrate the creativity of families during this unique summer period.

For those of you not in receipt of the packs, you can find a downloadable version of CHALK! on Emily’s website: https://emilyosheacompany.com/get-involved/projects/chalk.

Please donate what you can towards the project via this link - and don’t forget to submit your videos for the film project.
