Summer Art camps/courses for 13YO DD SWLondon

[SchoolMama]

Hi there, move to Twickenham (from the States) so not hugely familiar with the area. Looking for an art camp for my 13 year old to do for a week in August (ideally week of Aug 16th), so she can have a creative outlet and start making new friends. Can anyone recommend anything? Most seem to be aimed at younger kids. All suggestions welcome!

@SchoolMama, UAL have various short courses for teens.

Thank you Soma! I saw these earlier but many are online (which we are trying to avoid) and of those that are in person, almost none are available for 13 year olds… :(

Try this - they seem to have a great range, although in London Bridge, but should be easy to get to by train:

Not a full week granted (just 26th August) but would this be of interest? Lovely location on Eel Pie Island.

And so

Sorry… worth keeping an eye on Orleans House Gallery for future courses, they’ve been a bit quiet due to Covid but looks like courses are slowly starting up again.

Oh and Heatham House youth club on Whitton Rd has a couple of arty things on
