In the National Gallery PM (Aged 15–18)
About
A ten-week National Gallery drawing course for young artists aged 15–18, combining observational practice with close engagement with paintings.
Across ten consecutive Saturday sessions, young artists draw from observation in the National Gallery’s public galleries and occasionally outdoors. The course develops drawing techniques, artistic voice, critical thinking and portfolio work through fresh weekly exercises; the school says tutors can also advise on university art and design applications. No tutor is named on the public course page; it says tutor and meeting details are supplied through a private Padlet after booking. All materials are supplied. For ages 15–18 (school years 10–13).
