Saturday Club
The Saturday Club was formed to fill a need for women in the community to enrich their own lives outside the home. The club's official motto “Dare to be Wise” gives a clue to what ladies of the late 1880's faced when attempting to broaden their horizons.
How it works:
The National Saturday Club is a new model but not a new idea. Between the late 1940s and 1970s, art schools across the country opened their doors on Saturdays to give young teenagers a taste of what it would be like to study art after leaving school. For many of today’s artists and designers, it was the start of their creative and entrepreneurial careers.
The Saturday Club Trust
In 2016, the Saturday Club Trust was launched as an independent charity to take over the development of the National Saturday Club from The Sorrell Foundation
