BREAKING NEWS: SUMMER ART CLUB 🤗✌🎨

After so many demands/enquiries from so many friends and parents, Art for Guernsey is finally launching its own art club, 5 days a week, over the 8 weeks of the summer holidays.

"Through art activities over the summer holiday, the children will have the opportunity to travel through time to explore art in history, beginning with humble cave paintings and ending with a modern perspective."

Every week, children will be exploring a different period of art history, with different techniques, in a uniquely inspiring venue, at the very heart of our new gallery.

PLEASE REGISTER YOUR INTEREST !! We are aware that places available on summer activities are limited and demnad is likely to be high. We will be sharing more speficie details very soon but we will take bookings on a first come first serve basis.

We think that the programme is best suited to 6 to 12 years old, and when expressing an interest, please indicate which week(s) you are interested in. The booking will be per week, for 5 full days. [email protected]
