Young Artisan Project

The Trust  provides professional training for young people  of all abilities  to acquire new skills, develop new ideas with opportunities to progress into further training, employment and volunteering.

The Young Artisan project includes students from Bournemouth & Poole Building Crafts College, Budmouth Academy and Atlantic Academy Portland.  The programme delivered by the Trust involves acquiring new skills in  stone carving,  also working on new projects alongside artists  and recent art graduates.  A professional fine art painter  with the Trust also  delivers experimental  drawing workshops.

The Trust, an Artsmark Partner, designs and delivers a yearly creative arts programme, giving young people wide access and engagement with the environment, different artists and materials, encouraging outstanding  collaborative work supported by exhibitions and presentations at the Drill Hall Gallery.
