Welcome to Southsea Crafty Club!
I’m Tracey, a QTS trained Primary Teacher who loves art! I’m so excited to have you here at the most exciting after-school club. Southsea Crafty Club is the place where creativity comes to life and imaginations run wild! My aim is to create a great environment for young artists to unwind and create which will help them in a future art career or just for wellbeing. So whether your child loves to paint, sculpt, build, or doodle, this is the perfect place to explore new materials, try out fun techniques and make colourful memories.
When I was a child, I loved nothing more than to learn new art skills and work in lovely creative environments. I would even stay in at breaktime just to wash up the paint brushes and pallets after the lesson! The ability to be able to work on projects both big and small, using different mediums is so exciting and I hope you enjoy what I have planned. All resources are included.
I can’t wait to meet you!

Artist-Inspired Sessions for Kids
