Supporting the creative spirit of the Fine Art programme, our Medway campus offers a unique space for developing projects and exhibitions.
A major build of this historic site is underway to create brand new bespoke studio blocks and social facilities. The newly re-renovated Boiler House Workshop has been designed and equipped to cover a wide range of making processes. Features include a woodworking area with a variety of machine tools, a laser cutter, a kiln room, a walk in spray booth and a metal workshop complete with a welding bay. There is also an outside sculpture yard with a covered work area supplied with compressed air, light, power and lifting equipment. The printmaking studio houses a silkscreen exposure unit, drying cabinet, vacuum table as well as non acid etching facilities.
Complementing this, new audiovisual facilities are also under construction with access to large-scale digital printing, photography, film, video and media production laboratories.
The atmospheric regeneration site itself offers a wealth of opportunities for inventive projects and it hosts one off performance, exhibition making and film production events. The recent Sherlock Holmes films used our campus as one of its locations. Students are also able to access these unique areas for their own work.
