Kick Start Art is a free community arts project led voluntarily by retired teacher Linda Williamson and supported by the Crediton Heart Project.
Working with local schools across Crediton and surrounding villages, the project inspires children and young people to be more creative at home. Each term, exciting art challenges encourage imagination, build confidence and celebrate young people’s artwork through awards, exhibitions and community displays.
Kick Start Art particularly supports children who may not otherwise access creative opportunities, working closely with schools to include pupils who benefit most from additional encouragement.
As the project continues to grow, we are warmly inviting friendly volunteers to help support school visits, exhibitions and new creative initiatives, including a locally published children’s art book.
Volunteering is flexible, rewarding and a wonderful way to support young people while being part of a positive community project.
