Do you love art and being creative with different materials? Then come and join our weekly Tuesday Art Club, specifically designed for adults with mild to moderate learning disabilities.
This hands on course will allow you to create your own pieces of art using a variety of materials and techniques. We will look at lots of different topics and styles to create amazing pieces of art. This may include working in nature, creating pieces from recycled materials, and being inspired by the world around us.
You will use different media and materials, try a variety of art techniques and methods and study how other artists have explored this topic. Each week you will create your own art work and record your development and ideas in a sketchbook. This creative class will also help you further develop your social skills including speech, listening and creative thinking.
This is a leisure course so there will be no assessment or qualification. A College certificate will be issued on completion.
You will be taught in small groups by an experienced tutor. Our classes are designed to be hands on and interactive. Your tutor will be both friendly and accommodating, ensuring your experience on the workshop is fun and engaging.
Here at Eastleigh College, we are proud of our comfortable, welcoming learning environment and community venues. You’ll be alongside other people who are keen to learn the same skills and have some fun. There is absolutely no pressure or expectations; we just want everyone to have the best time possible and leave feeling proud of their new skills.
Course fee concessions are possible – eligibility is based on income.
This is a leisure course designed to be fun and engaging. Whilst there is no official progression, learners are welcome to re-enrol on to this course or try one of our other Adult Enrichment courses.
College is not just about your course – it’s an opportunity to have fun, meet new people and explore your interests! You can socialise with friends in the café and comfy seating areas, join a club or sports team or attend exciting events around the college. Many of our enrichment opportunities are also great on your CV or UCAS application to demonstrate your commitment and enthusiasm outside of your studies.
Your time at college can also be affected by life or health difficulties, and it’s okay to need support. Our specialist teams are here every day to listen and give advice, whether it’s about career planning, financial support, mental health, or something else. And if you have a long-term support need or medical condition, we’ll work with you on personalised learning support to help you achieve your full potential.
