Drawing Year Fund

Donate Now


Help us to support the next generation of artists and creatives by donating to the Drawing Year Fund today.

At the heart of the School’s curriculum is The Drawing Year, our full scholarship postgraduate-level course taught by a distinguished faculty of over 95 practicing artists.

Each year we receive more than 500 applications for just 30 full time places. In addition to being a fees-free course, students are given a studio space, 30 hours of teaching a week, and access to a means-tested London Living Grant - mitigating the financial challenges of studying in London.

We are committed to keeping the Drawing Year accessible to all and offering the best possible experience to our students; this is only possible through fundraised income and the generosity of our visionary supporters.

Your participation will help us to maintain our high standards and unlock the creative potential of future Drawing Year students.
