Part Time Courses

Make Time For The Work

You do not need three years to start making. RPSA's part-time courses put you in the studio on a Saturday morning or a Wednesday evening, working alongside practising artists and designers who teach the way they make: hands-on, honest, and invested in your progress. Choose from painting, figure drawing, printmaking, collage or jewellery design. Whatever your week looks like, there is a way in and once you are here, you will want to stay.
