This Friday Late, exactly 100 years since the founding of the Bauhaus, we take you to the art school – a place of creative experimentation and rebellious ideas. But in today’s climate of ever-increasing fees, funding cuts, and results-driven education, can the art school still be radical? Do they still have the space to break rules and challenge the status quo? Join us to destroy your dissertation and dismantle art speak. Take part in a collaborative speed crit and discuss decolonising the curriculum. Drop-in to a subversive life drawing class and explore affordable alternative art education, as we explore the power and potential of art schools.

All events are free and places are designated on a first-come, first-served basis unless stated otherwise. Filming and photography will take place at this event. If you have any access requirements, please let us know in advance by emailing disability@vam.ac.uk.

Please note, if the V&A reaches capacity we will allow access on a one-in, one-out basis.
