Why learn? - Case studies
I came to college to improve my written language skills after a 10 year career break and wish to return to higher education and employment. The course is one of the highlights of my week and the tutors are supporting and inspiring.

Celia, 58, Creative Writing
I chose to do the course to expand the breadth of my knowledge of art practice, try new materials and enhance my current skills. I've liked the range of materials, the chance to practice measuring and proportion, lively demonstrations and an excellent range of life models.
