Artichoke is running another FREE, week-long summer school, jam-packed with fun and creative workshops. Places are only available to young people from London-based low-income families.

Mural Artist and Facilitator Tasnim Mahdy is back to lead workshops along with other London-based artists. During our 5-day programme participants will engage with different artistic mediums including collage, painting, drawing, model making and take part in stop animation with Art Play, circus skills with the National Centre for Circus Arts and a tour of Whitechapel Gallery. Artichoke’s Summer School is the perfect space for young people to express themselves, explore creative ideas and make new friends.
