Express creativity and nurture curiosity through our artist-led kids’ program.The Art Club and Creative Crew experience starts in the gallery with thought-provoking tours of Campbelltown Art Centre’s current exhibitions and an emphasis on self–-expression, creativity and learning new techniques.
Rather than a step-by-step workshop, children are encouraged to develop their own ideas and creative flair while experimenting with a range of art forms.
On the final week, the group will host a celebration to showcase their work to friends and family, celebrating their achievements.
Programming is developed for both age groups and adjusted depending on skillset, and both age groups may work in the same room on the first day of the term depending on numbers.
