This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to one of Girton’s most celebrated events and connect with other members of our community. 

 

No experience? No problem! ArtFest Director and Junior School Teacher of Arts, Ms Nic James will be onsite to provide hands-on guidance and training in the initial stages.
