Education

Want to learn more about film, art and culture? We run events every month that explore the films and exhibitions at Cornerhouse. Try beginners level evening courses or our popular One Hour Intro talks, or delve deeper with seminars or a symposium. Teachers and educators should check out Projector (in the Schools & Colleges section) and young people try LiveWire (in the Young People section), not forgetting our resources section with study guides and programme notes for students and teachers (in the Schools & Colleges section).

And if all this isn’t enough the education department hosts exposures UK student film festival, a must for any calendar!
