Made @ The Place Art Exhibition

You're Invited!


We are thrilled to invite you to the Art Exhibition of the Made @ The Place Program! Our young and talented artists have created a delightful and imaginative collection, which we can't wait to share with you.


The event will be held on Thursday, 5th December 2024, from 4:30 - 6:30 pm at The Place Charlestown Community Centre.


The Made @ The Place program has been much more than just an art class. It's an initiative that facilitates positive growth and artistic confidence of local youth. The program provides a safe and nurturing environment where young artists can explore their creativity, learn new techniques, and develop their unique artistic style.


Our upcoming Art Exhibition is a celebration of their success. It's an opportunity for the young artists to showcase their artwork, gain exposure, and receive feedback from the community. It's also an opportunity for you to witness the incredible talent of these budding artists, and to support their artistic journey.


Of course, no celebration would be complete without refreshments. We will be serving light refreshments during the event! So come by, enjoy some great art, and have a snack. It promises to be an evening of creativity, inspiration, and fun!


We hope to see you there.


Bookings are essential.
