A little late posting… but worth celebrating!
In August 2025, Artish Huddersfield CIC achieved the Quality for Youth Bronze Award.
It stretched us (and our paperwork skills 😅), but it means something serious:
Our young people can trust that we’re in this for the long haul — with strong systems, safe practice, and real commitment to our community.
Thank you KYA and Kirsty for walking it with us.
YAY!

I’ve been involved with at Artish sessions for a few years now and over this time I’ve worked on many different projects including perspective drawing and shading, watercolour techniques,
ink and embroidery on fabric and way more. As well as teaching these Diane has also help guide us with our own ideas building on our skills. Session are always fun informative and full of great conversations. I’d recommend Diane’s session to any person or group wanting to improve or learn new skills.
