Do you enjoy drawing, painting, and sculpting? Are you between 13 and 19 years old? Welcome to the Art Café for Youth! Here, you can bring your own art projects and work on them, either alone or in collaboration with others. We offer free art supplies, cinnamon rolls, coffee/tea, and guidance from professional artists Partin Bastan and Marjan Sadat Najafi.

The Art Café for Youth is a free meeting place for those aged 13-19. On the first Monday of each month from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, we open the doors at 3E (3rd floor, Dronningens gate 15) for inspiration, development, and camaraderie in art. Welcome!

For questions, contact +47 411 41 881 / nicole.natalie.furnes@bodo2024.no.
