We welcome you to visit an exhibition of sculpture carved in wood and stone by students of the school. Sculpture tutor Veronica Ricks presents an exciting selection of the work of her students who meet together every Friday to explore the different possibilities presented by the carving process. They work with stone including limestone and alabaster, and a variety of different types of wood such as oak and limewood. These materials each have their own compelling and magical character.

Founded in 1845, Heatherleys is one of the oldest independent art schools in Britain. Among the few art colleges that focus purely on sculpture, portraiture, printmaking and figurative painting, our purpose built building boasts spacious, well-lit studios, a 3D workshop and seminar room, creating a modern and welcoming environment for learning and events. We offer both vocational and part-time courses, in person and online, alongside a tutored, open studio.
