Free things to do at home during Corona Virus lockdown

Enjoy free shows, culture, books and classes online at home

I have been amazed by the number of fantastic and fun activities that are being made available for free during this worrying time of COVID-19 and lockdown.

Of course it would be lovely to do everything. But I am trying to stay disciplined and keep working on my art business, painting and designing, so I've had to pick and choose what extra things I do with my time.

For me continuing to sing is a must. How about you?

If you're looking for new or additional things to enjoy, and want a fix of arts and culture then some of these may be ideal for you.
