LIAF presents: Animated Kids Shorts Programme at Barbican Framed Film Club

May 5, 2016 by LIAF

We’re back at the Barbican Framed Film Club with another spectacular selection of short animated films from around the world, suitable for children of all ages but specifically aimed at 4-12 year-olds.

There’ll be talking animals, seriously fun adventures and tales that spark all those little imaginations. Adults are allowed in if they have permission from their kids.

Animation is the most imaginative and engaging of all art forms and is the perfect platform to enthral and inspire the wide-open imaginations of kids. This programme – carefully selected with our youngest audience in mind – is always popular – and not a toy ad in sight.

Tickets will be available for purchase from the Barbican
