Ma children’s Book illustration

2026 Graduate Show

About

The first course of its kind. Our MA Children’s Book Illustration was established at Cambridge School of Art in 2001 by Professor Martin Salisbury, and is led by Course Leader Shelley Jackson. Our students and graduates often dominate national and international awards, or go on to have their work published.
