Maggi Hambling is known as one of our greatest living artists, but fewer people are aware that she is also a truly exceptional teacher. In 2024 she will have been teaching at Morley College for 55 years. All her pupils insist that studying under Maggi has changed their lives and the way they see the world. To celebrate Maggi’s decades of work at Morley College, this show of work by her students, past and present expresses the impact she has had as a teacher and mentor.

‘Art is a gift from the gods which must be honoured and offered back up to them. If one has had great teachers oneself, one can, in turn, try to pass something on.’

~Maggi Hambling
