**Inspire Your Child's Creativity with Portfolio Art Classes!**
Are you in search of a nurturing and supportive environment that can help your child cultivate their artistic talents? Look no further than Portfolio Art Classes! Our program is tailor-made for children aged 8-16, fostering critical thinking, creativity, and formal art studies.
**Class Structure and Content**
Our classes are meticulously designed to cater to the unique needs of each student and are conducted in small groups to ensure personalized attention. Students are placed in one of three categories:
1. **Portfolio Juniors Group:** Ideal for younger children with artistic potential, focusing on skill expansion and confidence-building.
2. **Portfolio Plus Group:** Tailored for more advanced students, this group expands their artistic knowledge and guides them in building their individual portfolios.
3. **Portfolio Creatives Group:** Geared towards students pursuing advanced art studies (GCSE, A-Level, and degree level), we help develop a strong portfolio foundation and nurture creativity.
**Materials**
Our comprehensive curriculum covers various art forms, including drawing, painting, printing, and mixed media. We provide all necessary materials, including graphite, pencils, watercolor pencils, pastels, acrylics, watercolors, ink, relief printing, linocut, mono-printing, screen printing, collage, digital art, and projector.
**Inclusion Policy**
We firmly believe that art is for everyone, regardless of abilities or learning difficulties. We warmly welcome children with SEN and learning difficulties, and our classes are wheelchair accessible.
**Payment Options**
Select from a range of flexible payment options, including weekly direct debit, online payment for block bookings of 6 or 12 consecutive sessions, or cash payment at each class once your registration form is received and your child's place is confirmed. Register by January 6th to receive a generous 20% early bird discount.
**Art Awards Program**
We take immense pride in introducing our Art Awards program, featuring Discover, Explorer, and Gold awards, meticulously designed to recognize and nurture artistic skills and creativity among children aged 5 to 25. Our founder and director, Eliyah Qureshi, is a qualified Arts Award advisor specializing in SEN delivery.
**Exciting Spring Term Activities**
This spring term, we're embarking on an innovative approach. Instead of the traditional year-end exhibition, we will collaborate on exciting projects and events where our young artists actively participate and influence the creative journey. These projects will evolve throughout the term and be showcased at external organizations and events, providing our young talents with an incredible opportunity to shine.
**Special Projects for SEND Children**
We are delighted to offer special projects tailored for children aged 10 to 25 with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Inclusivity lies at the core of our mission, ensuring that everyone can experience the joy of creating art.
**Join Us for an Artistic Adventure!**
This year promises an exhilarating journey filled with creativity, sustainability, and inclusivity. Let's celebrate art, unleash our imaginations, and make a difference through our collective artistic endeavors. We're eager to embark on this exciting journey with you!
