Make, Build, Create: Spring Youth Programme 2025

We are excited to invite you to Make, Build, Create – A Creative Spring Youth Programme at St Anne’s House.

Do you love making things and want to try something new?

Make, Build, Create is a welcoming few days for young people (aged 14–18) who enjoy trying new things! It’s a chance to play with ideas, creativity, and explore ways to express yourself. 

Are you thinking about a creative future but not sure where to start? 

The sessions will be run by practicing artist and SAH Youth Producer, Holly le Var, and a guest facilitator, who have skills and knowledge to share with young creative people.

During the three days we will involve fast paced activities that will help us to let go of perfection! 

Including:

• Designing fonts from found objects
• Printmaking techniques (Monotype, Tetra Pak, and more)
• Collaborative large-scale paintings
• Building rapid sculptures with mixed materials
• Experimental collage-making
• Sculpting with clay and other tactile materials

Across the three days we will:

-Learn how to document and share creative processes

-Use photography, sketchbooks, and other methods to track ideas as they develop

-Work with found and recycled materials to build, construct and create at different scales

Expect to get messy, make weird and wonderful objects, and dive into bold, inspiring approaches to design and art-making! This experience can help build confidence, spark new interests, or even contribute to a portfolio. The 3 days will wrap up with a small showcase to celebrate everything created.

No experience needed.

Everyone is welcome!
