The Arts Factory are now taking bookings from new members for our Saturday and After School Art Clubs for a January start. We have been truly thrilled by the response we have had to our sessions and have added a new club in Dulwich Village due to demand.There are now four courses to choose from. Two Saturday morning classes held in Dulwich Park Bowling Green pavilion commencing on 5th January, 9.30 -11.00 for 5 - 9 year olds, 11.30 - 1.00 for 9 - 12 year olds and two after school clubs which start the week beginning Monday 7th January.Both after school clubs are for 5 - 11 year olds and run from 3.45 - 5 pm. On a Wednesday the venue is The Goose Green Centre, East Dulwich and on a Thursday the venue is St. Barnabus Church Hall in Dulwich Village. On a Wednesday we can offer a pick up from St. John?s and St.Clement?s Primary School by arrangement and on a Thursday we can arrange a pick up from DVI School and Dulwich Hamlet School by arrangement.If you would like more information on any of our clubs we would be delighted to hear from you. You can contact us on [email protected] or via our website www.theartsfactory.london or please feel free to pm me. If you?d like to see examples our amazing members? creations please have a look at the website or have a look at our Instagram feed @theartsfactory ( look out for the polar bear chalk drawing).

Dear Ratatouille Thank you so much for the brilliant recommendation.We really have been overwhelmed by the response we have had from all the parents and children who have experienced our clubs so far. Due to demand we have actually decided to launch a new after school club on a Thursday during term time in the St. Barnabus hall in Dulwich Village from January 2019. The club will run from 3.45 - 5.00 and we would like to offer collections from Dulwich Hamlet Junior school and Dulwich Village Infants if people want them. We would love to hear from anyone who would be interested in a place for their child. We were also contemplating opening a club for slightly older children 11 -14 years olds maybe. The ideal time and venue for us would be in the Goose Green Centre on a Wednesday from 5.30 - 6.45. We have had loads of requests for such a club but would love to get some feedback from a wider audience. If anyone has any views or is interested in a place we?d love to hear from you. You could email us through our website www.theartfactory.london or pm me.

The Arts Factory are now taking bookings for their Autumn 2 block of workshops. Saturday sessions in Dulwich Park Bowling Green Pavilion start on 3rd November and continue until 8th December and the Wednesday After School Club in the Goose Green Centre starts on 7th November and continues until 12th December. We have limited spaces on all courses but please drop us a line if you are interested. We have been running our workshops since Easter and have had the most amazing feedback from our members. If you?d like to book or see examples of some of the brilliant work our children have created take a look at the website www.TheArtsFactory.london or our Instagram feed.@ theartsfactory (look out for the chalk polar bear face)

Hi I?m actually one of the art teachers who runs The Arts Factory sessions. Our web address is theartsfactory.london. We run two classes on a Saturday morning at The Bowling Green Pavilion in Dulwich Park ( next to the children?s playground). The first class 9.30 - 11.00 is for 5 - 8 year olds and the second class 11.30 - 1.00 is for 8 - 12 year olds. We have only being running the classes for a term so far but the response has been amazing. If you have a look at this link some of our wonderful parents have given us some great feedback.http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?6,1951216,1951488#msg-1951488 I run the sessions with a colleague and we are both trained teachers and are passionate about outstanding art education. We believe a broad artistic education is crucial to unlock a child?s full potential. We wanted to offer classes that teach children about a diverse range of artists, allow them to experiment with an extensive range of techniques , such as print making, clay modelling etc and obviously have a whole lot of fun whilst doing so. As part of the club we also take the children on gallery visits and run observational drawing sessions in the park environment. Please have a look at our website if you?d like to find out more and you can always contact me personally if the website doesn?t answer all your queries. We are also launching an after school club in September on a Wednesday at the Goose Green Centre because parents have asked us to and we know Saturdays aren?t always the most convenient time for a club.
