The Independent Art School began in Birmingham in 2009 and has since been built into a thriving artistic community. Our tutors are encouraged to share helpful advice with each other and students are often invited to free events, like museum tours or talks, where they can come together and inspire one another in their artistic development.
We are a small organisation part-funded by Birmingham City Council with a mission to make art more accessible to anyone with an interest in the subject. We are committed to helping our students to develop as artists and actively encourage any feedback or suggestions that can improve our student’s experience.
After the initial success of The Independent Art School in Birmingham and London, we are very excited to be opening our new Manchester branch. We look forward to getting to know our new students in Manchester and building an exciting new artistic community in this vibrant city.
