In short

The King's Foundation School of Traditional Arts, at 19-22 Charlotte Road in Shoreditch, London, teaches the sacred and traditional arts, with geometry as the link between them. Its full-time, two-year taught MA in Traditional Arts, authorised by the University of Wales Trinity Saint David, covers traditional painting techniques such as pigment preparation, egg tempera, gilding and icon painting, and architectural crafts including stained glass, wood parquetry, ceramics and carving in plaster and wood; each MA student has a workspace in an open-plan studio and access to a workshop. The school also offers research degrees, an icon painting programme, short courses and lectures.
