'Design Your Own Pride Flag'

By designing their own Pride Flag, children and young people can not only have fun and experiment with various art techniques, but also learn about the history and significance of the Pride movement. Children are invited to create a flag filled with things that matter or are important to them personally.
This activity can help increase awareness and promote acceptance of diverse identities, while also encouraging individuality and self-confidence.
So, let’s unleash our creative spirits and celebrate Pride together! We can’t wait to see the amazing designs that our young artists will come up with.
