Regarded throughout the world as a centre of excellence, the Royal Academy Schools has been the cradle of the arts in Britain since the inception of the Academy in 1768. As the country's oldest art school, it has a strong sense of identity, tradition and community.

Schools Patrons are offered unparalleled access to the Schools and enjoy the opportunity to experience life at the core of this unique institution which developed the talents of Turner and Blake, and continues to nurture new and great talent today.
