Across LUCA’s different workshops you will find a wide range of specialised facilities. In the glass workshop you work with both hot and cold glass techniques and various finishing processes. In the moulding workshop you learn how to create moulds in different materials to reproduce forms, while in Printmaking you explore analogue printing techniques such as relief, intaglio and planographic printing.
You can also bring your ideas to life in the print workshops. Here you translate digital designs into tangible results, from fine art prints and large-format posters to prints on a variety of materials and textures. With professional equipment and the guidance of experienced workshop technicians, you will discover the techniques and materials that best match your artistic vision and story.
As a LUCA student, you have access to every workshop across all LUCA campuses.

Als de grondhouding van het beleidsplan inhoudt dat ‘kwaliteit onze drijfveer’ is, en dat elk aspect van het beleid hieraan kan worden getoetst, dan wil LUCA ontegensprekelijk een sterke kwaliteitscultuur uitbouwen en voeden: een cultuur die vertrekt vanuit vertrouwen in mensen met talent en expertise, en die gericht is op waarderen, inspireren en verbeteren.
Het formele kwaliteitskader voor opleidingen binnen LUCA kreeg de naam KOPERA wat staat voor: Kritisch de Kwaliteit van Opleidingen met Peers in Eigen Regie Analyseren.
LUCA vertrekt voor KOPERA vanuit een visie op kwaliteitszorg die vertrekt vanuit vertrouwen en gericht is op waarderen, inspireren en verbeteren.
Tijdens de zesjarige KOPERA-cyclus ontvangt elke opleiding een panel van kritische vrienden die de invulling van de kwaliteitskenmerken nagaan en bekijken hoe de opleiding bijdraagt tot het algemene LUCA-beleid.
Het sluitstuk van KOPERA is de uiteindelijke borging van de opleidingskwaliteit. De kernvraag daarbij luidt: "heeft de opleiding een goede kwaliteitscultuur die de ‘plan-do-check-act’-cirkel volgt?"
Van elke opleiding publiceert LUCA een kwaliteitsfiche. Je kan deze terugvinden op de pagina 'Kwaliteitszorg'.
