NAPA's beautiful home is 120 years old next year. It was built in 1904 as Hull Art School and many people studied art and design here before it became our home 20 years ago.

We are planning to mark the occasion by inviting past art students back to the building for a get together in early 2024 to share memories, see the building now and hear plans for its future.

If you studied art in our building on Anlaby Road in Hull, please get in touch and we'll make sure you're invited to the event. Email [email protected].

Please tag anyone who has a connection to the history of our building so that they can see this post.

Thank you.
