‘Paint What Matters!’ Art by Children and Young People in Cambridge

Paint What Matters! is a unique exhibition at Kettle’s Yard celebrating the talent and creativity of children and young people in Cambridge. The exhibition will share the work of up to 1,000 young artists aged 4-21 years across our two galleries.

  • 26th February 2025 - 9th March 2025

For this exhibition Kettle’s Yard invites children and young people in Cambridge to create artworks about what matters to them today, in any artistic style or medium, from local to global issues; from their home to our shared planet; from love for families, friends and communities to concern for nature, animals and the environment.

A selection of artworks created by Kettle’s Yard’s partner schools and community groups will also be on display.
