The Art department organises a range of trips, talks and workshops each year which aim to give students a varied and rich Art experience.
These range from visits to the major galleries and museums in London such as the Tate Modern, Saatchi and Victoria and Albert Museum. To more local museums such as the Pitt Rivers in Oxford and the Museum of East Asian Art in Bath. We also aim to take the practice of Art out of the classroom with Sculpture Trails at the Forest of Dean and workshops and talks with local artists in their studio's. The department also encourages trips and workshops with the Prep School and these have included visits to The Black Swan in Frome and The Big Draw.
