This is a great opportunity to support Barkingside Art Club - a popular, affordable and inclusive art club, providing a unique service to the local community and beyond.  Established almost five years ago, we pride ourselves on our community service. 

Currently we run various adult and children art classes, ranging from afterschool, weekend and holiday clubs, as well as local projects and festivals.
