Story
We are taking part in the inaugral Eastside Try-Art-Lon Corporate Challenge to raise funds to support the vital work they do in bringing cultural and creative learning to all children and young people across London and the UK.
The challenge is:
- a 5 km swim to reflect the 5 regional partners they work with
- a 100mile cycle ride through every London borough to represent their work across London
- a 25km run to represent their 25+ years of history
Funds raised will go towards three of their key programmes:
- Artists-in-Residence - an Eastside artist goes into a school over a term, using a specific artform to address a theme or topic chosen by the school.
- Eastside Online - an online creative education resource hub, containing artist-lead videos workshops and pdf resources and links to live-streamed workshops and teacher CPD sessions.
- Eastside Film Crew and Females in Film - these programmes offer mentorship, masterclasses and pathways into the industry for 18-25 year olds
