Art Sessions

Teenagers involved in the Garforth Big Lottery Project will be taking part in a series of messy & creative Art Sessions at Garforth Community College, starting next week!

The young people will learn new art techniques and create work to be displayed in the new library.



They will then have the opportunity to demonstrate their new skills - & pass them on to others - at the Garforth Arts Festival on Saturday 11th July!
