Make the work you want to make
Courses, crits and a studio community for artists and designers who take their practice seriously.
01
The program
Twelve-week courses in drawing, illustration, photography and graphic design, taught by working artists.
Every course ends with a crit: your work, on the wall, with honest feedback from tutors and peers.
Courses
Structured, project-led and taught live.
Crits
Monthly reviews of members' work.
Open studio
Weekly drop-in sessions to make together.
Members' work is shown twice a year
Our spring and winter shows are open to every member. Submissions open six weeks before.
The crits changed how I see my own work. Hard, fair and exactly what I needed.
I showed in the winter exhibition after one year. I would not have dared before.
Before you ask
Do I need experience?
No. Our foundation courses start from the beginning, and every course says what it expects.
How do crits work?
You upload work a week before, and we review it together live. Recordings are kept for members.
Where should I start?
The welcome guide on your first visit walks through the main areas. Most people begin there, then follow whatever catches their interest.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. Everything works on a phone, a tablet or a computer, and you pick up where you left off.
