The Art Club: Autumn 2025

Sign ups are now open!

The Art Club is one of Kunsthall Stavanger's core activities. Here, children are introduced to contemporary art in a fun and accessible way.

Together with specially invited artists, the children explore different ways of working and thinking within the field of contemporary art. One of the goals of the Art Club is to provide children with new experiences and introduce tools from the art world that they can use in their everyday life. In the Art Club, they get to meet and work with professional artists, and our skilled art educators follow them through the semester. At the end of the semester we invite our friends and family to an exhibition to see what we have made and learned.

This autumn, the kunsthall is getting an entirely new garden and entrance area. Therefore, our Kunstklubben participants will create something for our new outdoor space! It will be unveiled during a grand celebration of the new garden, alongside sculptures by internationally renowned artists. Throughout the semester, we invite the participants to reflect on what a physical space can mean to us. How are we affected by the space around us, and how can we change the space we inhabit?

Welcome!
