12th -16th February Half Term

For 8-11yrs and 12-18yrs.

Easter classes from 2nd - 12th April. 

As the February Half Term is such a short holiday there may be an overlap with ages but there is plenty of space and tutors to keep the tuition individual and age-appropriate.

Classes run from 10-3 pm and days can be booked individually or in blocks (£50 per day). 

We feature particular materials/techniques each holiday but every day is centred around each student, so days can be repeated and skills, ideas, and interests built upon.

Easter Classes 13th - 16th April 2021 :-) :-):-) !!!

SOLD OUT !!!

After far too long we are back !! Tentatively at first so this Easter we will only be running the 2nd week of Easter 13th-16th April (10-3pm) and with a small bubble of children for 4 days.

We are following the Government guides please see below

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/protective-measures-for-holiday-or-after-school-clubs-and-other-out-of-school-settings-for-children-during-the-coronavirus-covid-19-outbreak/protective-measures-for-out-of-school-settings-during-the-coronavirus-covid-19-outbreak

However this doesn’t mean we won’t have fun and still have that lovely warm welcome to you all

2021 is just around the corner

On behalf of the ArtWorks brilliant team I want to take this opportunity to thank our students and their parents for their support and patience this year while we negotiated the Covid precautions. On and off Zoom, changes in venue and extra safety measures all to keep us all safe and healthy.

Below is a selection of work done by our regular term time and holiday class students this year and one of the life drawing sessions in our temporary venue in September. Many thanks to The Old School House for their support this year when our usual venue was unavailable.

All good wishes for a healthy rejuvenated 2021

THE SUMMER CLASSES ARE NOW FULLY BOOKED!

We are fully booked throughout the summer!

I am so sorry to those who weren’t able to get a place this time. To create a ‘bubble’, the students and tutors have to be the same all week, so there were less available individual places. We also had to reduce the class size from 18 to 10. As the summer progresses and hopefully restrictions begin to relax we may be able to run another week at the end of the summer from 24th to 27th August but this will need to be confirmed closer to the date with the approval of the school.

Again my sincerest apologies for anyone disappointed this time.

Warmest wishes Jo x
