About the Community Art Open Space:

Welcome back to the Art School studio!

This is intended to be a creative space where everyone who comes along can create their own work or do joint ventures with the idea of creating an exhibition later in the year (optional). Bring your own materials. Great tunes in the background are a bonus!

It is a very social group, welcoming to young and older generations and loosely facilitated by Gillian, Louise and Walter with an intention to share art techniques and methods. Some sessions might see guest teachers coming to hold some specific classes and share art techniques .

“What donation tier might be best applicable to me?”

• £4 – Concession Tier 1: This tier is for those who are students on a low income, carers, or single parents. It is also for people who are unemployed or underemployed, navigating financial hardship, or facing systemic barriers. If you rarely spend on extras or feel stressed about meeting basic needs, this tier exists so that you can still participate. Your presence matters, and you are welcome here.

• £8 – Sustainable Tier 2 : Choose this tier if you have stable employment or a regular income, are able to meet your basic needs and some wants, and can occasionally go out or put a little money aside. At this level, you don’t often worry about making ends meet.

• £12 – Generous Tier 3: This option is for those with a comfortable income or savings, who may own their home or have access to family wealth. You might go on holidays, eat out regularly, or shop for pleasure. Contributing at this tier helps support the wider community and those accessing the concession rate.
