BRILL

After School Art Club

4pm-5pm
£65 for 5 weeks

Join the fun at our weekly after school club for 5-7 year olds (for 8-12 year olds, check out our new Herring After School Art Club).

Over five weeks, children will explore new materials and techniques in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, led by local artist Sara Melin.

This term, taking inspiration from our exhibitions and coastal location, children will use professional art materials to create imaginary underwater creatures, experimental self-portraits and colourful coral reefs. They will experiment with patterns inspired by fish scales, sculpture using natural materials, and seed printing.

Due to the capacity of our studio, it’s not possible for parents and carers to stay with children but coquina café will be open until 5pm for parents to enjoy a coffee and take in the view.

All materials will be provided. All sales are final. We are unable to offer refunds.
Number of sessions: 5
Dates of sessions: Wednesday 15 April, Wednesday 22 April, Wednesday 29 April, Wednesday 6 May, Wednesday 13 May.
