Fine Art Award for 16 to 18 year olds

One of our most thrilling initiatives for 2024 is the launch of our Fine Art Award. This competition is open to all artists between the ages of 16 and 18, encouraging young talents to showcase their creative potential.

The shortlisted artists will be invited to exhibit their work in the gallery in our new campus, conveniently located next to Tate Modern.

We believe this competition will provide a valuable platform for young artists to gain recognition and inspiration.

Please register your interest to be kept up to date with the latest news and submission information for the Fine Art Award.

Other Opportunities for Young Artists

The Fine Art Award builds on our existing work encouraging young artists. During Easter and Summer Holidays we offer a programme of classes designed specially for 12 to 17 year olds.

These courses provide a high level of tuition, and cover disciplines from drawing, contemporary painting, specialist sculpture, and experimental media classes. Our summer courses include bumper programmes such as graphic novel, manga and animation classes.

For both Easter and Summer school we are pleased to reserve a limited number of spaces on each course for scholarship students. We are committed to making our courses affordable and available regardless of background or circumstances.
