Choose your path
At The Art School Chester, adult learners can choose between two ways of learning: our ongoing Adult Studio Art Programme or our shorter Focus Courses.
Both are taught by highly qualified and experienced art teachers in a calm, supportive studio environment, and both welcome complete beginners as well as more experienced artists.
