Meeting the Next Generation of Makers at Hereford College of Arts

The next generation of makers, designers and craftspeople are preparing to share their work with the world.

During a recent visit to Hereford College of Arts, I explored work from graduating students across BA (Hons) Artist Blacksmithing, Contemporary Design Crafts, Jewellery Design and Textile Design. Together, the exhibition offered a fascinating insight into the future of making, showcasing not only exceptional craftsmanship but also the confidence, curiosity and ambition of the students behind the work.
