Join us for a fun, relaxed morning of creativity!

Open Art is Boom Studios’ social art programme, returning for a new run this Spring. Our aim is to build community through arts participation and sharing of community contacts - connecting people who may be new to Bangor, or otherwise seeking connection with likeminded creative residents.

Wednesdays 10.30-11.30 with some extra time for snacks & socialising afterwards. Specific dates and locations are shown below - please check social media for updates.

£ This programme is currently un-funded and we welcome donations towards running costs. Suggested donation £6, can be made at the start of the session via our pink collection boxes (please have exact change for cash) or by card machine.
