‘Newmarket Young Arts’ will provide an opportunity for children and young people to meet a range of artists and find out about their artistic practice and creative careers.
Ninety minute monthly creative sessions will enable participants to learn new skills and techniques and develop their own creative practice in a supportive environment.
Each participant will receive a creative kit to enable them to continue working on their creative ideas and portfolio at home between sessions at the museum.
There are different sessions for each age group -
6 – 8 years (10 – 11:30am)
9-11 years (11:45 – 1:15pm)
12 – 14 years (2-3.30pm)
Parents and carers can book their child on the programme of six sessions by emailing info@nhrm.co.uk with Newmarket Young Arts in the subject line and we will send you a booking form to complete.
