Northlight Art School Evening Courses
Spring Term 2026
We will be offering a 10 week Spring Term 2026 starting Monday 12th January and ending Friday 27th March with a half-term week Monday 16th to Friday 20th 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 January you will get an email in mid December 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.
