Northlight Art School Evening Courses

Spring Term 2025

We will be offering an 11 week Spring Term 2025 starting Monday 13th January and ending Friday 4th April with a half-term week Monday 17th to Friday 21st February.
Our courses roll over term by term and we expect a lot of returning students. However, please contact us via email or phone if you are interested in any course as there may well be space and if not we have waiting lists.

Course fee payments: If you are booked onto a class starting in September you will get an email in early August advising about payment, which should be done using BACS transfer if this is possible.

As a self funding not for profit organisation we try to keep course fees as low as possible whilst still affording the cost of building overheads, wages and materials.
