Join us this school holiday for Young Makers Club Summer Sessions!
This summer we are running our Young Makers club all throughout the summer holidays.
It will take place every Thursday at either 12 - 1pm or 2.30 - 3.30pm.
Young people can learn about different art techniques and explore their own art style in these fun creative sessions. There is a different topic each week with an art or craft project to make and take home.
Young Makers Club are drop-off sessions. For safeguarding reasons and room space, we ask that only children aged 6-11 attend sessions. We have a gallery space and shop on our ground floor that parents and guardians can explore while children are in the session.
Our sessions offer an inclusive space for young people with disabilities, learning differences and mental health needs and are delivered by experienced staff. If you would like to discuss how we can accommodate your child's needs please email us.
Suggested donation £5 per child but please pay what you are able to.

Young Makers SUMMER HOLIDAY Club has been made possible thanks to the support of the Whitstable, Herne Bay and Canterbury Lions.
Without the support or sponsorship of local organisations and businesses, accessible activities like Young Makers Club will not be able to continue. As the charity faces continually increasing operating costs we need more support to ensure these vital clubs can remain accesbile to everyone. If you think you can help support these activities please get in touch for a sponsorship pack.
