Sprockets includes a Public Programme for ages three and up and a week-long School Programme for students in Grades 1 to 12. The School Programme is designed with curriculum links and support material for educators. The festival launched in 1998 with an attendance of 2,300, and has grown at a phenomenal pace, increasing its audience to over 17,000 in 2008. The tremendous success of this event led to many year-round outreach programmes.
