Art-K Dorking Art-K is an art club for children and adults currently running sessions in Dorking. Art-K is an art club for children aged 6-16 and adults.

We have developed an art curriculum which is engaging and fun whilst developing crucial skills at the same time. The original art-K has been running in Ashtead for 20 years and we launched the Dorking branch in November 2017. Students are given age/ability-appropriate projects covering a wide range of mediums and techniques, including: acrylics, watercolours, pastels, oil pastels, clay, papier maché and paper sculpture. As well as covering long-term projects we will build up their visual memory so that they can draw from their head. Through art we aim to build children's self esteem and confidence, which has a positive effect on their academia and general well-being.

What a summer! 🎨✨ Between launching our biggest exhibition ever (Wild at Art!), bringing our growing team together from studios all across the UK for our company days, and blowing out the candles for art-K’s 10th birthday… we’ve been running on pure creative energy. 🥳🎂

With so much love for what we do, we asked our incredible art leaders one simple question: What’s the absolute best part about teaching art? 🖼️👇

Watch to hear their favorite moments! Can you spot your teacher?!

Every sketchbook tells a story, and this one is a brilliant example of just how much progress can happen with time >>>

Now, progress isn't about creating a perfect piece! No, it's about building skills, confidence and a lifelong love of art. And that's our favourite part to see!
