Youth Arts – a place to experiment, express and make art about things that matter to you (be it climate change, civil rights, hip hop or punk! – use the arts to explore where you stand or become an arts activist!
We’ll support you to develop your personal style, skills, confidence and support your creative career pathway. We have award winning expertise working with youth groups and preparing them for progression.
This is a unique opportunity to be part of a pioneering new platform to shape the direction of youth culture in Solihull. Youth Arts is powered by Art at the Heart CIC – qualified artist lecturers with 25+ years of experience working with youth groups. The workshops can support GCSE/A-Level arts subjects and folder/interview preparation for higher level courses (eg degree in the arts).
We use high quality materials in our teaching; most materials are provided but we’ll recommend purchasing a personal art kit (available at the sessions).
We accept late starters dependent on places. For more information contact office@artattheheartcic.org
