This week, our National Saturday Club members visited Central Saint Martins to share their ‘self-portrait’ projects. This was a great chance to meet club members from across the country and admire the work they had been making for the last few weeks.
As well as viewing the amazing artworks, our members had the opportunity to listen to speeches by co-founders of the National Saturday Club, Sir John and Lady Frances Sorrel.
The day ended with an incredible visit to Makerversity at Somerset House where we were kindly given a guided tour of the facilities.
Do you know a 13-16 year old who would be interested in joining our National Saturday Club?
