Between 2016 and 2020, Cove Park’s programme of workshops and events for children and young people was known as Hands-On Cove Park. During the Covid-19 crisis and related lockdowns, this programme moved from in-person events at Cove Park, to a series of online activities and creative projects for young people and families at home. Cove Park worked with artists and former residents to devise these free projects, sharing films, leading Zoom workshops, and delivering activity packs and materials to homes in our local area. This work was made possible with support from the Paul Hamlyn Foundation.

In this film, Ashanti Harris introduces us to the core themes of her work, central to which is the body and movement. Join in as Ashanti demonstrates a movement exercise designed to encourage us think about how subtle changes in the way we move can feel. Film editing by Duncan Marquiss.
