The Drawing Year is our full-time, full-scholarship postgraduate-level programme. It is designed for artists and creatives who wish to engage in creative exploration and critical enquiry, and discover how drawing can further enrich their practice.

30 selected students benefit from 3.5 days of skills-based tuition a week from distinguished teaching and visiting artists, access to their own dedicated studio space, a lecture programme, professional development guidance and the opportunity to exhibit in a series of end-of-year public exhibitions.

Places are offered on portfolio and interview. The programme has no fees, and living grants are available. Our Alumni programme offers teaching, residency and exhibition opportunities.
