Robot Building Workshop, Kings Lynn Arts Centre, Nov 2007 |
Workshops at Kings Lynn Arts Centre |
James spent several days with us in the run up to his exhibition at the King’s Lynn Art centre and then delivered some education work with us. He relates extremely well to children and young people and his work is so direct and engaging. He was very easy to work with and has a high standard for his work and an easy-going manner. Also the playful nature of his work really contributes to breaking down barriers to the gallery. |

Workshop at Cecil Sharp House, EFDSS |
We were really happy with James Johnson-Perkins' workshop for our May celebrations event. The whole concept of building a giant Mega Bloks maypole really caught people's imagination - children and adults alike loved it! We also really appreciated the care and thought he put into the preparation, which made the event a great success. |
