Unleashing the artist in everyone.
View ClassesWelcome to our art school.
As Thomas Hirschhorn tells us;
“Art is - in all circumstances inclusive. Art has nothing to do with exclusivity. The Art-Public is a non-exclusive- public. This is the opposite of a pre-determined selected, and initiated public”.
As a Charity, no 1072327, we strive to provide art learning to those who could not otherwise access it and support them to achieve their potential by gaining essential skills, or for career development or change, often both.
Learn with HSoA
As a practitioners' art school, we are commited to teaching essential practical skills that form the foundation of a career or an adventure in the visual arts.
