What does it feel like to have eczema? How does it affect your daily life? What makes you feel better? Through creating a rap and pieces of art to express your ideas, you can help others understand what it’s like to live with eczema.

Jane Stockley is a Nottingham based artist who specializes in drawing, painting and printmaking. Ty Healy is a Nottingham based rapper and poet whose work reflects a blend of HIP-HOP, poetry, and spoken word.

This workshop is designed for children to enjoy independently. Children should bring a packed lunch and drink. Parents and carers, feel free to relax in our lovely cafes or explore our galleries while the kids get creative.
