Annual National Saturday Club London Visit 2016-2018

The Saturday Club gives young people aged 13-16 the opportunity to study subjects they love at their local college, university or museum every Saturday morning for free. For the annual London Visit, all Clubs from across the country are invited to the capital to come together as a national network. From 2016-2018 the annual National Saturday Club London Visit was hosted at Central Saint Martins, which saw over 1,200 13-16-year-olds from across the UK join me for a creative workshop. I developed an annual brief which challenged the young people to think creatively and work together. In 2016 we created large-scale collaborative drawings, in 2017 we built an ambitious three-dimensional city using tracing paper, and in 2018 we worked on huge collaborative collages. "The National Saturday Club was delighted to be hosted at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London. The Club members all enjoyed their visit to the college, the chance to meet each other and to take part in building the paper city together.” - Sorrel Hershberg, Director, The Saturday Club Trust "The club members were really impressed to be ‘inside’ Central Saint Martins and to see their work on display.” - Tutor, Greater Brighton Metropolitan College Photo credits: The Saturday Club - London Visit at Central Saint Martins, photo by Magnus Andersson, Saturday Club Trust.
