What it’s like
After-school and holiday art classes for 6 to 16 year olds, with proper materials like gold leaf and Indian inks rather than the usual poster paints.
This is a set of art classes rather than a drop-in studio, aimed at kids who want to actually get better at drawing and painting rather than just splash about for an hour. There's GCSE and A-Level drawing tuition alongside the younger after-school and holiday sessions, so it spans a decent age range from six up to sixteen.
What sets it apart is the materials list. Instead of the usual poster paint and sugar paper, projects use gold leaf, acrylic paints, Indian inks and even Victorian photographs as source material. That's a step up from a standard kids' craft class, and it'll suit a child who's already keen on art rather than one you're hoping to convert.
Because the age range stretches to sixteen, the older end gets treated properly too, with structured drawing classes pitched at exam level. If your child is doing GCSE or A-Level art and wants extra tuition outside school, this looks like the more useful option than a general holiday craft club.
