The Mary Ward Centre

This course is for those who wish to start an enterprise or business as an artist, designer or maker and who are seeking to develop their creative skills to a professional level.

We will guide you through your first steps towards becoming a practicing professional via on-course projects. Our aim is to equip you with basic business & IT skills, help you develop creative & critical thinking skills and develop your confidence & motivation.

You will learn enterprise and business skills, experience a work placement, exhibition or show & develop your own artists website.

You will be taught by a team of tutors who are all practicing artists. There will also be talks and discussions with visiting artists, visits to galleries & shows to talk to curators & organisers and other opportunities for networking.
There will be opportunities to work alongside artists and designer-makers. Current students have placements at Cockpit Arts, Kings Place & Pangolin Gallery, British Museum & other arts organisations.
