Between March 2016 and December 2018, the Centre for Research in the Arts, Creativity and Literacies (CRACL) at the School of Education, University of Nottingham conducted research into and evaluation of Serpentine community-based, participatory arts programmes focused on children and young people.
The final report is presented in two volumes. The first deals primarily with results and recommendations. The second volume presents extended descriptions of each project and artistic practices. The research and evaluation generated by CRACL, is intended as complementary to the research and knowledge production that the education curators, artists and communities produce together through projects.
