I completed my BA (Hons) here…In my opinion it is a very special place..! 🌟
A good art school, not too pretentious and with well displayed artworks during the degree shows. 2 min from Kennington station backing into the wonderful Cleaver square where one can sit and discuss the student work in the early summer...
Fantastic Art on display at graduation show. Fine art, mixed media as well as wood and stone carving works available to view and purchase.
Best art school I've been two, I mean, it's the only art school I've been to but it's still great.
It’s overwhelming how fulfilled I feel by my learning experience at City & Guilds of London Art School. I continued from the Foundation Diploma to the BA Fine Art (Painting), and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. It’s incredibly important to find a school that appreciates you. I am lucky enough to have benefitted from the generous donation made by the valued trustees, who support and believe in City & Guilds of London Art School; I was awarded the Painter-Stainer’s Scholarship, which has enabled me to focus on my practice without overbearing financial worries. Prior to my time at City & Guilds of London Art School I was an Art Scholar at Charterhouse School, and I have felt being here, in smaller community, seeking out advice and support has never been easier. It’s much more intimate, much more personal, and much less like a business. We get spoiled with tutor supervision, with regular tutorials. The other art schools I looked at before applying didn’t offer that. We have the opportunity to give feedback on the syllabus, and what happens at school evolves organically, through our regular meetings with the Board of Studies. It feels as if the course gets sculpted by our needs and interests.
