The Northern School of Art

The National Saturday Club Art & Design programme at The Northern School of Art provides young people aged 13–16 with the opportunity to explore their creativity in a supportive and inspiring college environment.

Through a wide range of practical projects, students develop skills in drawing, painting, collage, ceramics, textiles, digital art, design, and 3D making, while learning about artists, cultures, and creative careers.

The programme helps build confidence, independence, and creative thinking, while encouraging new friendships and collaboration. Students also benefit from Masterclasses with industry professionals and the opportunity to exhibit their work at the prestigious National Saturday Club Summer Show.

The Club made me want to pursue a career in art and I can’t express enough how much that has meant to me

The National Saturday Club is a fantastic and valuable opportunity for members to develop their creative and technical skills in art and design. The opportunity to exhibit in London is a real confidence boost and raises their self-esteem and long-term goals and ambitions
