Sheffield Hallam University Special Collection

Archives of Sheffield School of Art

The Adsetts Centre holds the surviving archives of the Sheffield School of Art from 1843 to 1969, although much was destroyed during the bombing of the College in 1940. It includes annual reports, prospectuses, student records, correspondence, photographs and some examples of student work.

The learning centre has collected written material on former students; for example Sargeant Jagger, Frederick Varley, Arthur Lismer, Omar Ramsden, Godfrey Sykes, George Fullard, and John Hoyland.
