Our National Saturday Club members, with friends, family and tutors, recently came together to celebrate the end of our first National Saturday Club, and what an amazing first year it’s been!
We have explored vérré eglomise, etching, chine collé, screen printing, wood carving and painting, working in gold, clay, ink, wood, pen and paint. We have also visited amazing creative spaces, from a trip to the V&A with the NSC, to visiting Fishmonger’s Hall and Two Temple Place with the Art School community.
Our members have created their own coat of arms, re-imaging this Heritage object through the lens of their own identities. The outcomes are nothing short of outstanding, and the commitment and hard work from our members has been inspiring to the whole National Saturday Club team at the Art School.
We were delighted to see our members’ work on display at the National Saturday Club Summer Show, which took place at Somerset House from 15-18 July. It was inspiring to see their pieces alongside the work of 1500 NSC members from across the country. If you weren’t able to see the exhibition, do check out our members’ work in the online showcase here.
We are so proud of our NSC x CGLAS 2022/2023 Alumni – congratulations!
Next academic year, we will be running two National Saturday Clubs at City & Guilds of London Art School.
