Your Tutor

Name: Suzy Drake

Bio: Drawing has always been part of Suzy’s life from childhood onwards. The natural world and drawing has enabled her to really see the world around her. All of which has led to a degree in Scientific Illustration which has given Suzy the skills to accurately describe this world. Suzy has always wanted to share these skills which led her to teaching whilst continuing with her art. Suzy has taught in adult education, adults with addiction, adults with learning difficulties, family learning and children. She teaches different art subjects, not just drawing, to different ages and abilities throughout Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire.

Keep Up to Date

We no longer produce an annual brochure. This is simply because things change so quickly—we're always adding new courses, workshops and events, and a printed brochure can’t keep up! Not printing the brochure also helps us save on costs, so we can spend more on improving the activities and facilities we offer.

But don’t worry—getting the latest information is still easy. You can find up-to-date details of all our courses, workshops and events on our website, and we continue to put notices on the boards inside the Settlement building, just as before.

If you’d like up to date information sent straight to you, please sign up for our regular Settlement Newsletter. It’s a friendly way to stay in the loop, and we’re here to help if you need a hand with anything.
