Open Access costs £20 per four-hour period and four places are available for each session.

Open Access times:
Tuesday: 6pm – 10pm

Diploma and Certificate courses
The Academy runs a three year intensive practice based fine art Diploma course, focusing on sculpture and painting and covering both traditional figurative skills and creative practice.
The Certificate courses are ideal for people who are serious about developing their artistic talent, but have a limited
amount of time to give to it. The courses run one day a week for two years and include a very comprehensive
programme of study in each area.
The courses include skill development, creative exploration within the subject, and personal guidance, and all culminate in a final show to help develop and finish the work.
