The "Jub Jub Club" a free membership programme for young people. The Gallery plans to launch the programme on 1st March 2009 to join in with National Children's Day celebrations, at which time information about the programme will become available from the Gallery's reception and website. As part of the programme the Gallery will be hosting activities every second Sunday afternoon from 2-4pm during term time and every Sunday afternoon in the school holidays.

Membership will be free, however, some activities may incur a gold coin donation. "Jub Jub Cub" will offer opportunities for children to experience different aspects of art and culture - including; news media, film, cartooning, sculpture, animation, art history, banner painting, gallery projects, T-shirt painting, photography, edible art, exhibition tours, as well as workshops with guest artists that tie in to the current exhibition/cultural themes.

As we are a non profit organisation, we would be very grateful if anyone has any ex demo / second hand/ trade in - computers, laptops, digital cameras, video cameras, whiteboards & or black boards they would like to donate/sponsor.

If you or another member of your family would like an invitation to the launch, please contact Lyndal Lane on 308 1133 or email lyndal.lane@ashburtonartgallery.org.nz
