  Excellent courses that I would recommend to anyone passionate about art. Great relaxed, creative atmosphere and there's always a tutor nearby if you need advice, support or even just an opinion on anything. I don't think you would get the same level of one-on-one attention anywhere else! Student's individual styles are really developed and encouraged, and while throughout the year you get the opportunity to experience many different mediums, nothing is rushed or watered down in any way. I found my course very in-depth and professional and was the perfect foundation for courses I have completed since then. Also, the support you get while applying to continue your studies at other institutions is second to none. I can't rate this school and it's tutors highly enough, and several years later I still regularly find myself remembering things I learned whilst there. Would love to return myself!

  After drawing my whole life I decided to pursue my dream of becoming an artist by attending the level six Fine Art course in GSA in 2010/11. It was the best decision I've ever made, not only to pursue art, but to attend Gorey School of Art. There, my talents and interests were honed into becoming the artist I am today. If it wasn't for Mr. Carter and the rest of the tutors I'd probably be studying business and miserable but thanks to their attentiveness and passion for art, and their students, I am currently in my final year of Fine Art, Media in NCAD. I firmly believe the skills and concepts myself and others have acquired in GSA have given us an upper hand on a lot of other students/artists around. Thanks Paul and all at GSA, I owe you.

  After completing a level six Diploma at the Gorey School of Art, I continued my art education studying for a BA in Fine Art at the National College of Art and Design. This would not have been possible for me without the GSA. The people teaching there have created a course that is honed to help students achieve their art career oriented goals. The course is structured so students can experience a broad array of disciplines while maintaining a smooth learning curve. I graduated the NCAD in June and am now working as a resident artist at the Royal Hibernian Academy, and much of my current practice still has its foundations in what I learned at the GSA.

  A great college that's buzzing with ideas and encouragement. G.S.O.A.helps a student develop an individual style of Artwork I completed the level six course there and am now in my fourth year in N.C.A.D. doing Fine Art Sculpture.

  Very creative. Great preparation for my future studies. Great tutors (very helpful and aware of current demand on students that wish to continue with further study in art colleges).
