Outreach Programme
Our Centres are a key element in our Outreach Programme, enabling our core education programme to be extended out beyond London to communities in key locations around the world. The traditional arts and crafts curriculum which underpins our postgraduate programmes is adapted to the appropriate cultural context where each satellite school is based.
About
The School of Traditional Arts is committed to regenerating the traditional cultural heritage of different regions and communities. We have offered peripatetic and satellite programmes in more than 20 countries. These include the establishment of education centres, community development projects, vocational training, cultural heritage regeneration and academic exchange programmes. Our unique methodology makes the King’s School a suitable partner for government agencies, organisations and individuals around the world as they form their policies on education, craft and community development.
AlUla, Saudi Arabia
Current programmes
The vision for The Integrated Design & Craft Education Programme is for it to become a main education and cultural centre in AlUla, an inspirational creative hub that generates a genuine sense of pride for the heritage of the region. It will become a focal point in AlUla offering a unique opportunity for participants to learn and gain inspiration from the philosophy “we are nature” and design and make products reflecting the environment of AlUla through creative & contemporary means of expression.
