The King’s Foundation School of Traditional Arts
Through our educational programmes in London and around the world, the School of Traditional Arts works to ensure the practice and wisdom of the traditional arts will continue to inspire future generations to understand our common origin while producing work that is of its time and place.
Our education programmes
Centred in the practice of traditional arts, our educational programmes guide the development of an understanding of the Order of Nature as a core inspiration for visual arts throughout time. Students come to recognise the potential of traditional art to convey beauty, to positively impact the environment, to impart wisdom, and to enrich the life of their immediate, and the global community in the most essential manner.

Experience the traditional arts through lectures and short, practical courses taught by experts from around the world. Open to all and inspired by the media, methods and materials taught in our postgraduate programmes.
Postgraduate programmes
