Sean Steadman was a student at Richmond, graduating in 2014 with a BA in Art & Design and a year later with a postgraduate qualification in Art History & Visual Culture.

Since his graduation from Richmond, Sean has been teaching art history in China as well as being an artist.

“I feel that I benefitted so much from studying art at Richmond, it was such an incredibly rewarding experience. Having graduated, I started a non-profit organisation, The Steadman Foundation, to educate, influence and support the creativity of artists and art enthusiasts around the world. It’s a cause very close to my heart as so many art programmes have disappeared, along with funding for them, and I’d like to do what I can to support young artists. That’s why I’m offering a $1,000 scholarship to any international student at Richmond studying art at either undergraduate or postgraduate level. I’d like future students at Richmond to know that alumni do come back to support in many ways.” – Sean Steadman
