AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Turps Banana: Art School
http://www.turpsbanana.com

Peter Ashton Jones and Marcus Harvey have long held the view that an artist led painting school could flourish in a climate where there is growing disquiet about the quality of painting tuition, inadequate tutorial input and rise in tuition fees on too many established fine art courses.

The Editors feel it is time to begin to respond to this in much the same way that a painting magazine run by practicing painters has fulfilled a need for many painters with a desire for intellectual stimulus and focus in this area.

Painters Studio Programme, London

In September 2012, Turps will be launching a 12-month intensive programme of mentoring, dynamic group seminars, talks and lectures for painters.
