Northlight Art School Evening Courses
Autumn Term 2024
We will be offering a 12 week Autumn Term 2024 starting Monday 16th September and ending Friday 13th December with a half-term week Monday 28th October to Friday 1st November.
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. This term we have a few changes in tutors too.
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 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.
