Young Artists Group, Venture Arts
Venture Arts are looking for young people aged 19-25 with a learning disability or autism who have a passion for art and would like to join our Young Artists group.
- Meets on Thursdays and Fridays, 1:00pm - 3:00pm at Venture Arts.
- No specific art skills or experience are needed - just an interest in making art.
- The group helps young people to develop their identity as artists.
- Young people work alongside an experienced artist facilitator and have the opportunity to try a range of different art forms including ceramics, illustration, digital and textiles.
- We go on regular visits to exhibitions, artist studios and other cultural places and spaces (Venture Arts covers the cost of these trips).
- We support our young artists to set personal development goals and to access opportunities like commissions, artist residencies and placements with other cultural organisations.
- Workshops are £10.00 per week.
- Workshops run throughout the summer holidays. There is a two week break at Christmas, one week at Easter and one week at both February and October half terms (we do not charge for these sessions).
