How our courses are run
This course is hosted by The UK School of Framing alumni at venues across the UK.
Equipment for the day is provided, well maintained and shared amongst the students, you are encouraged to support and share any tips you have with each other.
Our courses are intended to be enjoyable, educational and collaborative learning experiences, there’s no stress from tests or assessments at the end of the day. We hope you leave with the satisfaction of building and learning something new.
High Wycombe:
Courses are run with a maximum of 10 students. Starting at 10am and finishing at 5pm, there will be a 30 minute lunch break and a few short refreshment breaks.
Please be aware our High Wycombe venue is a little bit out of town so we advise bringing a packed lunch or you may miss out on the great opportunity to get to know your fellow students over lunch!
Can I bring my own picture to be framed?
Answer:
- Yes, we encourage you to bring your own photos or pictures. Please read the “What do I need to bring?” section for details on dimensions and quantities of pictures.
Recommendations:
- On the day you will be working with white mounts and a black frame, so bear that in mind when choosing an image to bring. A black and white photo will work really well if you are unsure.
What if I don’t have any pictures:
- If you don’t have a picture to frame there will be pictures provided at the event or you can email us to print your pictures for you.
Bringing unsuitable pictures/Artwork:
- If you arrive at the event with something that is NOT suitable, you won’t be able to use it. Below is a list of everything that is NOT suitable:
- Fabrics, artwork with texture such as oils, acrylics, loose materials such as chalk, pastels, decoupage, etc. or tightly rolled prints that need flattening…
- Once you’re through the Art & Photography Framing Weekend you’ll find we have courses especially for handling all of these types of artwork and objects!
Is there somewhere on site I can buy lunch from?
No, the venue only has basic facilities to make hot drinks, which we do provide. It’s outside of town, so we advise bringing a packed lunch or you may be rushing around in your lunch break and miss out on the great opportunity to get to know your fellow students over lunch!
Is there free parking?

How long is the course?

Do you provide hot drinks?
Yes, we will provide hot drinks (tea, coffee).
Can I bring someone?
No, we run the courses with set number of students as this allows the tutor to give each student the attention they need while learning. Before a course starts we engage in health and safety planning and risk assessments for the number of people we expect on the day. We don’t have a waiting area, viewing gallery or reception for companions.
Can I take photos?
