Art Experience Days
Artpod
A summary
Join us at the Artpod studio this winter for our Art Experience Days! Our sessions & space are SEND Friendly and our neurodiverse team are well equipped to help your little artist express themselves through the joy of arts & crafts!
Learn top techniques with real artists and make new friends! Each day there are new materials and activities that promote self-expression and imaginative exploration. Examples include: painting and drawing, sculpture, sewing, slime and potions, growing your art, to building and decorating.
We’ll be having enormous fun with countless art materials, from 3D to science art, and canvas to clay art, there is something for everyone!
We have purposefully chosen a menu of art activities that can be easily adapted to suit all ages and abilities.
Artpod Studio has a messy room and a quiet area so that we can cater for children who need a calm space or need to move around a bit more.
We’ll also include fun-filled visits and activities at the beach just outside our front door!
All materials, snacks and delicious food are included.
A few T&Cs from Brighton & Hove City Council:
• Eligibility criteria – Brighton & Hove HAF funded places are for children and young people in reception to year 11 who receive benefits-related free school meals.
• Limits on bookings – Over the Winter, Eequ will permit each eligible participant to be booked on to 4 HAF places across all providers in the city. If a session is not attended, HAF places cannot be added back on to an individual’s allocation, regardless of reason. It is therefore important that sessions are cancelled before the activity starts, and ideally giving a minimum of a few days’ notice where possible to allow other children to benefit. Bookings can be managed by the Booker by logging into Eequ and reviewing their Schedule.

Venue and Timetable
The Artpod studio is based in Rottingdean at the seafront end of the village. We are just on the left hand side of the ramp that takes you down to the beach!
Buses include the 12, 27 & 14, which stop opposite Tesco`s (from Brighton Route) or outside the White Horses pub (from Peacehaven/ Newhaven route).
If driving, then please note there is space to "drop off" outside, but you may wish to use the pay & display by Tesco or on the coast road and enjoy the village while the kids are in club.

It is the responsibility of the booker to satisfy themselves about the adequacy of the measures provided above and any other details represented in this listing. This platform is merely an introducer and does not verify the items listed.
Cancellation policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.
My experience is an educational activity, and the ‘14-day cooling period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
