Leith School Of Art

A fantastic place to learn. The teaching cant be praised highly enough

I love this place. They have several campuses and offer a wide range of art courses. Excellent staff, spaces, materials etc. Check out accessibility as it's different in different sites. E.g. North Junction Street is accessible for wheel chairs but only for the ground floor.

I have been to the community art class a few years ago and I was happy with all I learnt, so much so that I wish to do more 😉

I did a fantastic summer school at the Leith School of Art with Val Mclean and learned an amazing amount from her as well as the other students on the course. I also did a brilliant course with Jemma Derbyshire, fantastic landscape artist, who taught me so much about tonal values, various medium including charcoal, graphite, and oil paints etc. Fantastic venue for inspiring art courses via which students will learn an enormous amount to use throughout their artistic journey!

Art school for middle classes who like to dabble in "expressive art" , which the tutors will undoubtedly praise as being "wonderful", with a view to getting repeat business!
