Art Club Project

'Art Club' is a regular volunteering project at the University of Essex where we do arts and crafts

This year has been full of challenges, but we can help make a difference. We have sessions every Wednesday (making face masks) and every Thursday (making cards). Find out more and register to volunteer here:

Sometimes we feel lonely, or like what we are doing doesn’t matter, so let’s make a visible positive mark to end the year.

On Saturday, 29 May from 12-3pm we will be chalking the squares of campus with positive messages. We will have breaks for snacks and to talk to each other and share some funny stories.

You can leave earlier if you are not able to stay the full length.

Our one-off project Chalk your Talk has been thought out for students on and off campus.

If you are on Campus:
Register on https://gradintel.com/index.php/en/student/my-future/activities/view?id=1177 .

If you are away:
Register on https://gradintel.com/index.php/en/student/my-future/activities/view?id=1177 .

If you can chalk your street/house but don't have chalk here is a quick diy to make your own: https://www.makeandtakes.com/sidewalk-chalk-paint

If you have a message you want to see written on campus submit it here: https://pollunit.com/polls/c-uw0tkcaqrl-pzpxv3thq

Hey! Are you a creative person? Do you like working with children? If your answers were yes then come and volunteer with Vteam’s art club!!

I am looking for friendly and engaging students to become a session leader for our art club sessions we hold in local schools around the Colchester area. Transport is provided and all of the materials and activities will be planned out for you. All you need to do is deliver the session to the children.

You do need to be an artist to join! Most of the things we make are simple crafts involving paper plates and glitter. You will also have a team of volunteers who will help you with the children! ❤️
