NOTTINGHAM ART CLUB

Nottingham Art Club is a new campaign for summer 2022 that encourages venues across the city to provide FREE cultural events and workshops during the school holidays.

We know that the cultural sector has a key role to play in contributing to the resilience and prosperity of Nottingham’s communities. As part of this, Nottingham BID is looking to support events already scheduled or any new experiences specifically created for Nottingham Art Club that enhance family wellbeing and inspire Nottingham’s next generation of young creatives. All events that fit our criteria described below will be supported by a comprehensive, targeted marketing strategy.
