We worked with 30 artists on the education programme between August 2024-2025, bringing accessible, affordable art education to those who need it in the county of Essex where we are the only MA-ish level art education offering. We welcomed in over 50 practitioners to work with and support them on their learning journey and with their creative practices. The artists on the education programme put on one open to all public facing exhibition over 3 months in Southend-on-Sea for the creative community which included free to access public workshops, performances, video screenings and events for the wider community. The group also went on residency to Portugal and various trips to art spaces around the UK. TOMA published a book, How to set up an art school, which supports other artists who want to set up learning programmes as well as the wider creative sector. The book is available through tiered pricing and we also offered free copies to those who could not afford it. TOMA took the book on tour around the UK, putting on talks and workshops around the publication hosted by a variety of arts organisations and reaching over 300 audience members. These events were free to attend. TOMA also hosted a public programme in collaboration with The Old Waterworks offering free access to Pluto Press books through the form of a permanent library for the community, alongside a programme of talks, workshops and events which were all free to access.
Consultation with TOMA participants took place quarterly through group feedback and the programme is shaped directly by what is shared in this anonymous feedback. Feedback and consultation also took place at each session through direct conversation with programme participants and we worked with an evaluator to bring more focussed reflection to the programme and participants’ experiences.
