About Children's Club and Tutors
We are a fun and informative award winning after school club that offers private tuition in arts and craft to children between the ages of 7 and 17 years. Each session is just under two hours in length and full tuition in painting and drawing is offered to a very high standard. Each child has individual attention but is encouraged to free think and develop their own style. We strive to provide the best tuition for each child in age and ability. Each space is owned by the child for the duration of their time at the art club for as long as they would like to attend. If a class is missed, make up sessions can be offered on alternative days if there is availability. Every year we host an exhibition of the children's work which could either be onsite or at a local gallery which would be open to the general public. Its a great way for everyone to see how hard the children have worked over the year and we also encourage the children to offer their work for sale if they so wish.
The club is open for 48 weeks per year and is open all school holidays unless there is a
schedules club closure.
We also run full day workshops during each school holiday in various lessons in arts and crafts.
All materials are provided for all club and holiday classes
