Art & Design Rooms

Our new creative spaces give students the freedom to experiment, develop their skills and bring their ideas to life.

Our newly developed Art Studios at Kidderminster College provide students with a modern, inspiring environment designed to support creativity, innovation and artistic development. Featuring spacious studio areas, specialist equipment and a dedicated darkroom for traditional photography techniques, the facilities enable students to explore a wide range of creative disciplines while developing practical, industry-relevant skills.

The studios encourage experimentation, collaboration and independent learning, helping students build professional portfolios and prepare for progression into higher education and careers within the creative industries.

Where will I be studying?

Our Art & Design rooms are based at our Main Campus on Market Street, Kidderminster. Students studying Art & Design will have access to these dedicated facilities throughout their course, providing the space and resources they need to develop their creative skills and prepare for future study and careers.

What facilities can I use outside of my studies?

We aim to provide our students with an excellent learning experience that gives them the practical skills to make a difference within the industry. At college, you'll embrace your independence, make lifelong friends and access our award-winning facilities and activities.

At Kidderminster College, we aim to give you as many opportunities as possible to have fun alongside your studies, including guest speakers, work experience, trips and on-campus events.

Are there places to eat and socialise?

While using our Art & Design Rooms at Main Campus on Market Street, you'll have access to our on-site Cafe Relish, which provides hot and cold food, drinks, and a space to sit and eat.

If you don't fancy that, you can walk straight into the town centre, which hosts a variety of food places, including McDonald's, Greggs, Subway, and Costa Coffee. Within walking distance are shops, including Tesco, Morrisons, and Aldi.

Do you have study areas for students?

We have a number of areas for students to sit down, relax and study, including a shared space, mezzanine and our Student Experience Centre, all based on our Main Campus on Market Street, where our SPACE Rooms are based.

Glyn Taylor-Marshall

Tutor - Art and Design

My specialist area is in the arts, where I am versed in most mediums, e.g. performance skills/theatre, fine art, and contemporary/conceptual processes, including Live Art. I hold a BA in Fine art and an MA in Performance Studies. My teaching degree also specialises in learners with additional needs, and I hold a further qualification at Level 5 in Special Needs Education. I am an avid record collector, and I feel it is important to introduce my learners to all parts of popular culture, including music, politics and current ethical topics.
