Then I pursued this craft and studied ceramics on a two year A level course at Leicester College which was amazing.
Several of the potters I asked had studied ceramics to degree level and Little Wren Pottery was lucky enough to have a ceramicist father; but she still headed to the local college. In fact all the potters I asked recommended local colleges whole heartedly and Marmaladenina’s experience is inspirational, “‘I learnt my craft firstly in a council funded project in Leicester called FOSSE ARTS, a pottery workshop and studio that runs 3 or 4 days a week daytimes and evenings. It includes a teacher that is on hand to everyone that needs support and guidance in all areas of pottery. Materials are provided and all for a couple of pounds! I started with my young son in 2004. Then I pursued this craft and studied ceramics on a two year A level course at Leicester College which was amazing. I am currently studying 3D design crafts at  De Montfort University Leicester fulltime. If it it had not been my attending the community workshop in the first place this journey may never have happened..”
