Description

Our Summer Arts for Kids school holiday sessions are back! In these child centred workshops, kids will learn from specialist arts tutors and a creative assistant with each session focussing on a different medium and concept. Examples from last year's activities include Giacommetti sculptures, Bee Gardens + Pollinators and Cyanotype Photography!

Working with Clay! | Ellen MacFarlane | 10.30 til 12 noon | Thursday 21st July
Get Creative! | Helen O'Brien | 10.30 til 12 noon | Thursday 28th July

This project is about offering affordable access to the arts and providing opportunity to try high-quality and specialist artistic approaches from professional artists. Each session will be further supported by a Creative Assistant.

These sessions are appropriate for children from P1 to P7 i.e. kids who have just completed Primary 1, upto those going into Primary 7.

The actual cost per session is much higher than the given costs as we feel it is important to pay tutors according to Scottish Artist Union rates and provide access to quality materials and experiences. To ensure our holiday sessions are affordable during the school holidays, Birnam Arts subsidises this with further support from Creative Scotland.

We are offering the sessions on a Sliding Scale framework. Please be honest and pay what you can afford.

£4 | I have little to no disposable income
£8 | I have some disposable income
£12 | I have a comfortable level of disposable income

We will be running further school holiday sessions in the Autumn and Winter breaks - check back here or follow us on socials to find out more!
