About the course

This Portfolio course at Leitrim School of Art is a high quality course delivered by tutors with an excellent success rate in students achieving access to art schools in Ireland, and the UK. 

The course provides students with an opportunity to work to a level equivalent to first year undergraduate Art School courses, or in developing skills as a working artist, and for those seeking employment in the creative sector.
