The Art Station offers creative sessions for different community groups in our local area, co-producing activities where appropriate.
Starting in January 2022 our Saturday Nature Walks are an opportunity for children and families to enjoy a local walk in Saxmundham, discover local nature, footpaths and green spaces and take part in creative activities together – led by artists Hanna Varga and Jevan Watkins Jones. Funded by the Covid Continuity Fund for Culture, Suffolk County Council.
Art in a Bag offers creative activities and high quality art materials for older people in their homes during lockdown. We delivered 140 Art in a Bags between December 2020 and April 2021. Funded by East Suffolk Community Partnerships, East Suffolk Council.
PhotoShed is a group for men over 40 to get together around an interest in photography. A chance to socialise, get out and take photos together and develop new skills, helping to alleviate isolation especially during and post Covid-19 restrictions. Funded by East Suffolk Community Partnerships and Saxmundham Town Council.
