Back to School with Axis 2025 - Register now
Back to School with Axis returns this autumn for its fourth cycle.
Across October and November we are hosting five online events that dig into the lessons art school missed, sharing tools, conversations and experiences that help artists to keep going.
What’s coming up
This year’s programme starts 8 October 2025 and features:
8 OCTOBER 2025
Sustaining a Creative Career
with Saad Qureshi (Bradford City of Culture, Yorkshire Sculpture Park)
15 OCTOBER 2025
To MFA or not to MFA?
with KP Culver (RCA), Hang Zhang (LCA) and Emilia Roberts (Cardiff)
22 OCTOBER 2025
What Curators Want
with Marie-Anne McQuay (Liverpool Biennial, Arts Council Collection, Arts&Heritage) and Rhia Davenport (The Wilson, Boss Morris)
29 OCTOBER 2025
Image Matters: Presenting your work through photography
with JC Candanedo (photographer and Axis Co-Chair) and Adam Shaw (AOP)
5 NOVEMBER 2025
Regenerative Practices for Artists
with Ruth Singer (textile artist)
Why it matters
Many of the skills that sustain practice aren’t taught in formal education. Back to School with Axis creates space for artists, curators and peers to share insight, ask questions and connect.
Join us
All events are free to attend. Registration is required, with optional donations supporting Axis as an independent charity.
