A sleepover at Linden New Art supports children to explore, understand, and articulate their rights through collaborative creative expression. The event begins with a group-led brainstorming session where children identify key issues and co-author a new Manifesto.
Participants then engage in facilitated workshops using protest and punk-inspired mediums (including badges and banners) to creatively express their views. A carefully selected film supports reflection before rest. The event concludes with a family breakfast and artist presentation, showcasing children’s voices and advocacy in action.
