As we all suddenly find ourselves with lots of time on our hands, nonsuch studios cooking up some exciting and enjoyable creative adventures for those young and old across the globe to enjoy together. The adventures began on Monday 23rd March so sign up, get set and prepare to get creative!
Life Online FUNCreative Quarantine is a daily email of creative activities and adventures for people young and old to do in their own home. Led by a group of artists and creatives who’ve been sent home because of the coronavirus, like most of the country, we want to test what’s possible, have fun and connect with people across the world. So whilst we’re all inside our homes, let’s be as creative as possible!
We’re here for everyone – young or old! We have two different emails to ensure that we’re offering content appropriate to children and families as well as adults, so can pick your preference or receive both.
The creative tasks will be similar, but we’ll provide some extra educational features for children who are off from school, and some fruitier tasks for the adults to help alleviate the boredom of sitting at home.
All you need to do is click the button above and sign up for our email newsletter. The creativity will begin from Monday 23rd March.
We’re very aware that now the world is pretty much house-bound you’re not going to have access to normal arts and crafts supplies that you’d go out and buy from the shop. Instead, as long as you have access to the internet, a smartphone and standard household objects you’ll be fine.
Yep, totally. At this time money is very tight and so access to Creative Quarantine is free. However, we’re supporting artists who’ve been put out of work due to the closure of public venues and spaces across the UK. Therefore, if you’re able to, we’d love it if you could donate whatever you can. We’ll share any proceeds with the team behind the project and artists in hardship at this very difficult moment.
Get in touch with us – we’re not being exclusive, the more creatives the merrier! Send us an email to getinvolved@wearenonsuch.com and let’s chat!
