Trinity is home to hundreds of works of art, so there’s lots to see around the College,

from the Library to the walls of Great Hall. Trinity Fine Arts Society hosts life

drawing classes and Trinity Arts society runs the Picture Lending Scheme, as well as

hosting guest speakers throughout the year. Neither of these require an application

process or prior knowledge—just an interest in art!

The Fitzwilliam Gallery, Kettle’s Yard and the Heong Gallery offer lots of free talks

and workshops. There are many life drawing classes (including Life Lines and
