Wriggle Room is a 2 year artists residency developed for under-5s and their carers, which started in May 2022. Visual and Performance artists, Katy Beinart and Lydia Hunt, are designing and leading collaborative, creative sessions every Tuesday during term time, working with Willingdon Trees Community Centre and Towner Eastbourne to develop activities for Early Years groups and their carers across Eastbourne. Activities and workshops are built on a collaborative approach with participants and partners, artists practice, community and connection to the natural environments around Eastbourne and East Sussex and ways of engaging with Towner Eastbourne’s collection and exhibition programme.

In May 2023, an exhibition ‘Wriggle Room: Open Studio’ showcased work made by the children, parents and artists over the past year. The exhibition featured an animated film, costumes, dens, prints and objects made with the children which could be used in the gallery space.
