ReachOutRCA provide a varied and rewarding programme of art and design workshops, projects and exhibitions, bringing together RCA students and alumni with disadvantaged secondary school pupils across 14 Inner and Greater London boroughs. The programme’s long-term objective is to achieve greater diversity in the art, design and architecture community by engaging pupils who have potential in art or design but may face barriers in taking it to a higher level due to personal, social or cultural factors.

In the three years since its launch, the programme has reached out to over 2,300 pupils and 100 teachers, giving 160 RCA students and graduates the opportunity to extend their practice and to work with a new audience. The programme is unique in offering an outreach programme focused on contemporary art and design at MA level though practical workshops and has become an example of best practice.

As per its Royal Charter, the RCA engages its students in the practice of art and design through teaching, research and mutually beneficial collaborations with industry and commerce. A creative powerhouse with over 1,000 artists and designers working across all disciplines from fine art to design and communications, the RCA responds to varied creative briefs and offers branding and communications solutions, consumer promotions, creation of exclusive content and other collateral and events, using its flexible gallery space in the heart of Central London.

Tailor-made partnerships are available year-round.
