Artscaping is an established arts-in-nature programme run by arts and well-being charity Cambridge Curiosity and Imagination (CCI). It supports learning, mental health and wellbeing and focuses on how all children can flourish. Recent research with primary schools across the county has demonstrated how schools can establish teams of Community Artscapers to run their own nurture groups. The impact of Artscaping can be viewed here: https://www.cambridgecandi.org.uk/resource/eco-capabilities-2021
Two new free resources that share the learning and research to date are now available on the CCI website. There is a fully illustrated Guide to Artscaping, and a thirty-minute introductory webinar including interviews with children, artists, staff, headteachers and researchers.
The Artscaping Guide and webinar can be accessed here:
