History
Brunel University's Arts Centre has over 30 years of experience in providing excellent teaching and support for its students. In recogintion of this, the University invested £1million in a new building housing a Ceramics Suite, Visual Arts Studio and workshop and meeting room in 2006.
Advantages of studying here
As our courses are non-examined, students choosing one of our weekly classes can re-enrol on the same course:as often as they wish. The highly experienced staff are all practitioners as well as teachers, and bring a wealth of insight to their classes. The short courses ( one orr two days at weekends) are independent activities, and all have a practical outcome.

Pottery, including handbuilding, throwing, raku and decoration
Jewellery including glass jewellery, porcelain jewellery and precious metal clay
Painting & Drawing including Life, Portrait, Landscape, Abstract, Still-Life and Expressive
Music including basic and advanced vocal technique, choirs, specialist string quartet weekends, jazz, gospel

Description
The Arts Centre is part of Brunel University's Uxbridge campus. A new purpose-built building, it offers weekly and weekend courses in ceramics, painting, drawing, glass jewellery, music and drama to everyone over 16. Courses are non-examined, and there is no restriction on re-enrolment, allowing students to continue their studies for as long as they wish. All courses are taught by arts practitioners, and most courses welcome beginners as well as those with experience. Work from all visual and tactile arts classes is displayed in the annual All Our Own Work show in Brunel's professional Beldam Gallery.
