About Albion Sculpture Academy

Our approach

At Albion, craft and concept move together. Our curriculum begins with disciplined observation—drawing, measuring, and building—and builds into material fluency across stone, clay, and bronze. Critiques emphasize both historical references and contemporary contexts, preparing you to discuss, price, and deliver work professionally.

Studios operate like a working shop: you will learn to organize a bay, maintain tools, plan material budgets, and collaborate with foundries and fabricators. We keep cohorts small for one-to-one instruction and meaningful feedback.
