At University Centre Somerset, our creative arts offering draws on the legacy of 130 years of Arts School tradition in Taunton. Embracing our unique local heritage and the vibrant arts scene, we collaborate with regional, national, and international arts organisations to provide an immersive and inspiring environment for students.
With a focus on both traditional craftsmanship and contemporary approaches, our creative arts programs offer a diverse range of opportunities to explore and express your artistic vision. We prioritize practical learning and provide strong industry connections that prepare our graduates for successful careers in the creative field.
Our Arts House in Taunton boasts a range of professional facilities for students to explore their creativity. The airy art studios, fashion manufacture workshops, and fabric print rooms provide ideal spaces for artistic expression. We also provide specialised equipment for fiber glass molding, 3D printing, and a traditional print room.
Media Make-up students benefit from three purpose-built spaces, featuring two professional-standard studios with 20 mirrored stations each. Completing the setup is a dedicated workshop room with workbenches and ceiling extraction, ensuring students have the necessary resources to thrive in their studies.
