Art & Design
Every child wants to communicate visually nowadays, whether it be through photographs, Youtube, drawing, painting or design.
And increasingly, every adult needs a knowledge of design, photography and visual presentation as these skills are taken "in-house" in the workforce.
Marsden has passionate Visual Arts and Design teachers who provide a stimulating environment to teach the latest techniques in Drawing, Painting, Printmaking, Design, Digital design, Photography, Sculpture and Graphics.
The de
partment is housed in its own attractive villa in the grounds, with art studios on the ground floor, a full photographic darkroom, lighting studio and Mac Design suite on the upper level. Senior students have their own studio space.
Some of the best work by Arts and Design students is hung throughout the school.
Unique to Marsden is our Mercedes-Benz Artist-in-Residence programme which provides a working artist with studio space for five weeks, enabling them to complete work and take workshops with the girls.
