Art and Craft - Venture

Venture is an Art and Craft retail outlet based at Barton's adult Education Centre at Providence House. It is currently open on Tuesdays and Fridays from 10am to 3pm and is run by volunteers.

The outlet showcases learners' work from adult education classes across North Lincolnshire.

Items for sale include pottery, paintings, handcrafted cards and much more.

In order to extend Venture's opening hours, North Lincolnshire Council is appealing to local people who have some spare time that they want to fill to come forward and consider helping out at the venue.

Councillor Pauline Carlile, Cabinet Member for Adult Services said:

"Venture sells work produced by local learners in the Arts and Craft areas, so people can see items such as paintings, hand made cards, pottery, bobbin lace and much more up for sale at very reasonable prices. It's a great place to visit if someone is searching for a special or unique gift for someone."

"What's more Venture showcases the hard work and achievements of adult learners. People are never too old to learn something new. And like with an adult education course, volunteering some time at Venture could be a great way of learning new skills and meeting new people."
