Students from Newcastle-under-Lyme College (NULC) had exclusive access to design expert Wayne Hemingway, Red or Dead founder, at Ceramics 2013.A group of students studying the Foundation degree (Fd) in Contemporary Art Practice at NULC attended the Ceramics industry showcase where they were invited to their own question and answer session with the designer.
Widely regarded as an influential figure in modern British design, Hemingway began with fashion label Red or Dead before founding Hemingway Design, which allowed him to branch out into varied aspects of design, including ceramics.
Amy Davies, NULC Curriculum Leader for the Foundation degree in Contemporary Art Practice, said: “The students found the question and answer session incredibly rewarding and returned to college inspired to succeed.”
Amy continued: “Here at NULC we’re dedicated to providing our students with outstanding opportunities to meet industry professionals and gain employability skills. This sets them apart from their contemporaries when starting their careers.”
NULC provides a range of university level courses in partnership with Staffordshire University. Courses are available to study full-time and part-time and are taught in the College’s bespoke University Centre at the College’s £60 million campus.
Ceramics 2013 took place on Thursday 26 September and adopted ‘Made in the UK’ as this year’s design theme. The show brought together companies from across the industry and its supply chain to celebrate success stories, and to provide a key networking opportunity.
