About this Event
Stanley Picker Gallery is excited to continue running our popular Art Club for children ages 7-11 from our local community who are enthusiastic about art and design. Workshops are FREE for all and run most Saturdays, 11am-12.30pm.
All sessions are led by a team of Kingston School of Art students and alumni, and will complement the gallery’s exciting Autumn exhibition, A Socially Useful Production: "The Participation Waltz" featuring the work of artist and Stanley Picker Fellow Sophie Huckfield.
Young artists will delve into the themes of the projects in fun and engaging ways – combining interactive games, making, drawing, discussion – as they explore the practice and processes of contemporary artists and learn new techniques.
Parents are encouraged to drop their young people off and return at the end of the session, to see what has been going on and visit the exhibition together.
