Barbican Art Society

MISSION

The Barbican Art Society is a non-profit making, community adult education project located in the Barbican Estate, City of London, which advances appreciation of the visual arts, and makes art accessible through provision of classes led by professional art tutors

 We became  a registered Charity in 2015 - read more about our history in the about page. Our Art Room is located below podium level at the east end of Andrewes House (see map below). Please see the contact page if you are interested in joining our classes in 2024

 WHAT WE DO

We offer Art classes for local residents in the City of London and neighbouring boroughs. We cover drawing and painting in a range of materials and for all abilities. Some classes will be suited to complete beginners. Most classes have regular students who  develop their skills at their own pace. Classes are held in daytime and evening sessions to suit all ages and employment situations.
