Teaching Artists 2025

Each summer Glyndebourne and the University of Brighton collaborate to offer an artist residency for three PGCE Art & Design students. The selected students are granted exclusive access to Glyndebourne – its performances, grounds, staff and rehearsal rooms – and are invited to create an artistic response to their experiences. The residency gives students a chance to create work in their own right as an artist, free from expectations of output, and to take the knowledge and confidence gained into their teaching career.

Our 2025 Teaching Artists are Edward Paxton, Rosa Luetchford and Molly Banks. Read more about each artist’s experience here. Below is their final exhibition of work.
