Role: Lead Facilitator – Saturday Art Club
Working with: Youth Programmes Producer, Engagement Team at Royal Museums Greenwich
About the project
Our Saturday Art Club – part of the National Saturday Club Network – is a free weekly creative workshop for 13–16-year-olds in Greenwich. It offers the chance to try new techniques, visit other cultural venues, and build new social connections in the local area.
Our members often share difficult experiences with their mental health – they said the club helps them feel less isolated, creates a sense of belonging, and is a place to process their feelings creatively.
Royal Museums Greenwich's Youth Programme is seeking a skilled, kind and child centred artist-facilitator to lead the 2025-2026 Saturday Art Club. The Lead Facilitator will design and deliver the weekly workshops for a group of 20 young people aged 13-16.
We’d like these workshops to cover a diverse range of 2D and 3D art forms and be inspired by themes and objects from Royal Museums Greenwich's collections. Members’ interests and passions should also guide the content of workshops, and the Lead Facilitator is required to consult with members and collect feedback to do this.
