Aktuelle aktiviteter og samarbejder:

Kompetenceløft er et program initieret af Dansehallerne, Teatercentrum og Københavns Kommune i 2017. Projektet giver daginstitutioner mulighed for at samarbejde med en kunstner over en længere periode, hvor kunstneren faciliterer et kompetenceløft for to af institutionens pædagoger. Under forløbet får pædagogerne mulighed for gennem praksis at tilegne sig forskellige kunstneriske redskaber og metoder, som kan anvendes i hverdagen sammen med børnene. Ingrid Tranum Velásquez er en af de faste kunstnere tilknyttet ordningen og har faciliteret forløb for daginstitutioner i Københavns Kommune siden 2017.
Ordningen administreres nu i samarbejde mellem Sokkelundlille og Københavns Kommune.
