Last one! Really encouraging to see our Yr12s drawing practice moving away from ‘comfortable’ spaces. Being brave, taking risks, giving it a go, embracing the unexpected. Owning the Mezz Studio. Doing 👌 @BSAKsixthform @BSAKart @BSAKAbuDhabi

Not to be outdone, one of our Yr12 groups, making the MEZZ Studio into a hotbed of new creative practice. Takes time, not easy to move away from comfort zones, but these guys are building something special. Exciting.@BSAKsixthform @BSAKart @BSAKAbuDhabi

Has been too long. So where better to start than our Open Studios! The students and space goes from strength to strength. The current Yr13s are on fire. On course for legendary status. @BSAKAbuDhabi @BSAKart @BSAKsixthform
