Learning at the School of Art

Making spaces and events

The School of Arts here at Worcester delivers a range of very varied courses at several centres within the campus, but undoubtedly our showpiece is the magnificent Arts House. Commissioned in 2019, the listed building has very successfully remodelled itself to provide all modern facilities and functions for the whole range of student needs and opportunities. There is ample working studio space, and the Art House is sufficiently flexible to cater for all manner of events from exhibitions to teaching groups of all sizes. Visitors to the Art House are always struck by the feeling of space and light that it engenders, and the way in which its special atmosphere encourages creative thought and activity.

The Art House also creates a link between the University and the City of Worcester. To give some idea of the importance of this partnership, something over 3000 visitors to our various exhibitions and activities have attended shows and lectures in the very first two years of its existence.

But its main achievement is, of course, to provide first class facilities for our students. The feedback we get from all School of Arts students is universally positive, and not without reason.
