CashBack Hubs
Are you a young person aged 14-19? Interested in exploring creativity? Join CashBack Hubs and build your confidence through art!
This is a fun opportunity to make new likeminded friends, learn new skills, improve your physical and mental health, and express yourself through creative projects. No prior art experience required!
Over the course of 11 weeks, the group will be supported by a Creative Lead and Wellbeing & Opportunities Worker to explore a whole range of art forms.
You’ll also get to enjoy trips to galleries and museums, exploring our theme of heritage. At the end of the programme, we host a celebration event to showcase everyone’s amazing artworks.
Where it suits your needs, we can also support you to gain a Level 3 or 4 SQA qualification.
This course is completely free. All materials, snacks, and public transport costs are provided.
Young people will be able to explore creativity, imagination and making through digital and visual art.
