In a dynamic environment of dedicated studios and industry-standard workshops, you’ll gain the technical expertise, creative confidence, and critical understanding needed to shape your unique artistic voice. Whether focusing on a single discipline like Painting or pushing boundaries with multi-disciplinary approaches, you’ll have the freedom to experiment and evolve. From exploring diverse concepts in your first year to curating exhibitions in your second, and refining your visual language in your final year, every step is designed to nurture your ambitions. Our professional studies content connects you to the thriving North East art scene and equips you with the skills for a successful career in the arts—whether as an exhibiting artist, educator, or through postgraduate study.
Students will be offered a technical training that will allow you to become an arts and media specialist. Challenging and extending the traditions of such disciplines as fine art painting, drawing, printmaking, photography, video and sculpture. The wide range of superbly equipped workshops available to you will also facilitate the kind of experimental combining of materials and processes needed to explore and create hybrid art forms. You will be encouraged to explore art history and the context of your practice, in order to establish a strong personal visual language.

In year one, you will be introduced to a range of fine art concepts, processes and subject matters. In year two, you will make an informed decision about the subject matter, media or combinations of media that you wish to explore in your personal practice and have the opportunity to exhibit your work. In your final year, you will be supported in developing and refining your craft in order to realise your creative aspirations as an independent practitioner.
