This course gives you an opportunity to try many aspects of art and design within a chosen pathway: fine art, design, or textiles with fashion. The broad experience and skills you acquire on this course will help you to explore your own potential and build a portfolio of work. You can study traditional skills, combined with experimental techniques. The course also includes contemporary art theory and practice and an end of year exhibition of work.

Following the course, you can progress to a range of related degree courses and a wide range of careers, including in the film and creative industries. Last year many of our Foundation Diploma in Art and Design students progressed to university, including a high percentage to colleges within The University of the Arts and Goldsmiths College.
