Duke of Edinbrugh - 13 Week
Art Skills Course - £90

Build Confidence & Creativity with Our DofE-Approved Art Skills Course

We’re proud to be an Approved Activity Provider (AAP) for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, offering an inspiring and accessible 13-week Skills Section course for Bronze and Silver participants.

🎨 What to Expect:
Students take part in fun, weekly art projects using simple materials—many of which can be found at home. The course is designed to help young people build confidence, develop creativity, and gain practical skills through hands-on exercises.

🖼 Create & Share:
Each week, students complete a guided task resulting in a finished artwork, which they upload to a shared online gallery. This not only encourages peer connection but also builds a mini portfolio by the end of the course.

🗣 Personal Feedback & Support:
Our professional tutor provides individual feedback after every session to help students grow and reflect on their progress.

📷 Track Your Journey:
Students are encouraged to photograph their work each week to chart their creative development. As an official AAP, we submit a DofE Assessor’s Report on completion of the course, making the process simple and stress-free.

🎨 Led by Lottie Cole ARWS
This course is led by professional artist Lottie Cole, an Associate of the Royal Watercolour Society and represented by Long & Ryle Gallery. Lottie brings passion, encouragement, and expert guidance to every session.
