The Royal Drawing School is an independent, not-for-profit resource that aims to raise the standard and profile of drawing through teaching and practice. One of only a few institutions in the world offering in-depth, quality tuition in drawing from observation.
Tuition and resources for art students, artists, children and the public, Royal Drawing School aims to address the permanent need for high-quality drawing teaching in the UK, filling a gap left by the steady erosion of observational drawing from the study of art in higher education and in schools.
Founded in 2000 by HRH The Prince of Wales and artist Catherine Goodman as The Prince's Drawing School, it became the Royal Drawing School in 2014.
