Overview

On this Summer School you will develop your skills in Photography and be provided with a platform to experience Scotland’s biggest and most vibrant city.    

The Summer School will provide a “hands-on” experience of working in a creative skills workshop/studio environment.  It offers a unique opportunity to enhance current skills and to develop new techniques and knowledge that can be used to delight friends and family or even provide the motivation to use new skills professionally and commercially.

You'll visit galleries in Glasgow and Edinburgh to see how the skills developed in the Summer School can be used to enhance their portfolio of drawings and paintings for personal or commercial purposes.

This course runs over 5 days from Monday to Friday.
