All classes are attended by a mix of people with different abilities.  There is a small contribution to the costs of materials used in the classes by the participants of £4.50 per class which is payable in a variety of different ways. (Contact the Art Shape office for more information).


Anybody interested in taking up these final places should call the Art Shape office to speak to Caroline Tate, the Education Manager, to discuss whether this is the right course for you.


The tutors who lead Art Shape's classes are fully qualified to teach in the community, are CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) approved and are also professional artists in their individual fields. They are supported with regular training and career development and their performance monitored to maintain the standard required by OFSTED.


Classes are held in accessible venues throughout the County - Cirencester, Tewkesbury, Stroud, Dursley, Cheltenham and Gloucester. 


All our other classes are currently full to capacity. There is still more demand for them which we have been unable to fulfil through our current funding.  Your donation could help someone who would really benefit from this kind of learning have the chance to attend. If you are able to make a donation to help fund more classes please visit our website www.artshape.org.uk for details of how to give.
