Artistic techniques and creative learning for Home Ed families

Our Art Club is perfect to explore artistic tecniques and develop your creative flare through hand on tasks, discussion and practical learning.

The club is ideal for those families choosing to home educate and will cater for a mixed age range. Each session will focus on a different tecnique and will include learning about key artists. There will be plenty of time for the children to try out tasks and projects based on the session's theme.

Please note that some parts of the sessions will take place outside within the centre grounds so please ensure you all come dressed for the weather and in appropriate footwear. Please also wear clothing you are happy to get messy.
