National Saturday Club

National Saturday Club - Art & Design

Andover College and Chapel Arts Studios are thrilled to invite 13–16 year-olds of all abilities to join our FREE Art & Design Saturday Club!

The Club will offer exciting weekly sessions, which take place in the vibrant art department at Andover College.

We’re looking for curious young artists, designers, makers, crafters, creators and thinkers. Our Club is fully inclusive and we welcome young people with a variety of accessibility needs and neurodiversity – all we ask is that you come with an open mind, turn up and give it a go!

Our Club enables you to develop your creative ideas and explore your interests in making, designing and crafting. Club members are encouraged to ignite their passion for the arts through experimental drawing projects, as well as exploring techniques in printmaking, 3D-making, sculpture, ceramics, textiles and mixed media arts. Members learn to work independently, as well as how to collaborate on art projects too! Previous themes included self-portrait, storytelling, member-led topics, and many more.

We would ask that you make the commitment to attend every Saturday session (10.00 – 13.00) during term time. Together we’ll attend exclusive national events, including Masterclasses with creative industry professionals. We also visit art galleries and invite practising artists and designers to share their experiences. A highlight is our end-of-year trip to London to see your Club’s creative artwork on display at the Summer Show exhibition at Somerset House.


Join us at Andover College, where your artistic adventure begins!

The Andover National Saturday Club is a partnership project with Andover College and is supported by Arts Council England.
