Event Title: BATH CHILDREN’S ART FESTIVAL

Name of Act:  

Venue: BANDSTAND, ROYAL VICTORIA PARK

Doors Open:  

Show Starts: 11:00:00

Blurb: It is most unfortunate for the rest of us, but everything every other festival and celebration does, Bath Childrens Arts Festival goes and does it too, but better, and strictly for the under-12s. Dubbed "Glastonbury for Kids", this year's programme, over two days in Victoria Park (bandstand site), will take participants into a Brave New World, but doubtless a much more pleasant one than Huxley was thinking of, or even that in which the rest of us and Mr Blair are living. It'll have passports like Walcot Nation Day, big name shows like the grownups' Fringe, and zones like that wotsit in Greenwich - Peace, Creation, Science, Performance, Body, and Food. What's more fun again is that unlike most adults' festivals, this one's about doing things yourself, whether they're arts, crafts, performing or adventuring. Brave New Additions include the Infernal Machine with Bath inventors Bob Race & Tom Nesbitt, a Labyrinth of Expectations, the making of a Chinese dragon (2000 - Year of the Dragon) & wishing flags, a millenium mural and statue, hiphop/graffiti art, a Temple of Sound, and a huge circular climbing wall. There will also be an area devoted to the older kids with dream catchers, african dance, astro drama, DJ skills & singing. Among old favourites you'll find a clowning workshop, circus skills, pottery and stone carving, samba workshops, face painting, costumes, and of course the traditional procession. The peace garden will host a peace flame and an oracle, you are invited to bring and light a candle for peace. There are continuous performances from the likes of Bash Street Theatre and every kind of entertainer, as well as the numerous stars among the kids themselves. ***Due to the high demand last year we have provided extra facilities and fun this time - Shakespeare's Miranda would indeed marvel at it, and so will you, whatever age you are. 11am-5pm
