Let’s Draw! Art Club at
Saffron Walden Library
Art Material Donations and Volunteer
Helper Needed In January Ian
Jamieson at Saffron Walden Library
began running an Art Club for young
people, providing a place to create
and learn while having fun, along with
other creative individuals. Since then
it has grown in popularity, and our
club display board is bursting with the
fabulous art work they have created.
Ian started this club to be a free place
for art and imagination to thrive and
has made this possible by generously
sharing his art supplies with everyone
that has joined us.
Now that the club has grown so
big, and to make sure we can keep
providing these young artists with a
place to create, we need to ask for
any donations of art supplies that
P le a s e m e n t i o n ‘ T h e F l yer ’ wh en r esp o n d in g t o ad ver t isements
you would be happy to pass onto our
growing club. Do you have any paints,
paper, pens and pencils or brushes that
you no longer use? As long as they
still work then the Art Club would love
to have them.
With so many people now joining
the club we are also looking for an
enthusiastic volunteer to help Ian
prepare and clear away, and who is
willing to generally help out and get
involved with our fun activities. No
need to be especially good at art, just
energetic, helpful and over 14 years
old.
If you would like to donate or
volunteer for the Let’s Draw Art
Club, please pop into the library and
ask at the Hello Desk or email us at
[email protected]
