What are good programs for general learning - ceramics, photography, film, writing?

I'm from the US looking to study in the UK for an arts program. I studied Communication for my Bachelors, worked in product design for 3 years, and now I want to dive into a general program/degree that will enable me to explore multiple creative disciplines (ceramics, photography, film, writing, drawing specifically). My goal is to learn by doing as much as possible and having classes/facilities that are easy to access and free to use. I'd also prefer smaller class sizes.

Does anyone have experience with a degree/program that sounds suitable for this?

Hi @kariliu

This is a great question!

Kingston has a whole campus that specialises in art and lots of amazing workshops where you can do things like ceramics, printmaking, wood work etc as well as amazing photography and film studios you can use. It is open access to any course.

Here is a post another rep made more in-depth about the workshops

You can find the courses Kingston offers on the website https://www.kingston.ac.uk/study/course-search

I hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions :smile:
