✨"Studying the SilverHub One-Year Course changed my life."
At SilverHub, we're proud to offer some of the highest levels of jewellery education around, combining rigorous technical training with the creative freedom to develop as an artist.
Throughout the year, students build a wide range of technical skills, develop a wealth of visual and material research, and create a portfolio of work, one that not only feeds into their final year exhibition collection, but opens doors to further study. Our series of technical Master Classes lets students explore different specialisms alongside the core programme, giving them an edge as they move forward.
Former students have gone on to degree and postgraduate courses at institutions including Edinburgh College of Art, Edinburgh University, Aberdeen University, Glasgow School of Art, Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design (Dundee), West Dean College, Brighton University, Birmingham School of Jewellery, Sheffield Hallam University, and Bishopsland.
Here are some words from one of our alumni on how the One-Year Course shaped their practice, confidence, and career as a contemporary jewellery artist.
"Studying the SilverHub One-Year Course changed my life. I chose the one-year course for its strong focus on artistic and design skills, as well as technical skills. Over the year, my technical skills improved significantly, and I learnt a great deal from the masterclass sessions, and I have taken many of those skills forward into my own practice.
On the artistic and design side of things, the one-year course really opened my eyes to what jewellery can be, as an art form, and as adornment. We were constantly encouraged to push boundaries and challenge our preconceived notions to find our own voices as contemporary jewellery artists.
I benefited so much from the course that I returned for a second year, and the second year was just as beneficial as the first. I now feel much more confident in my own practice and have continued to take part in exhibitions, curated markets, and interdisciplinary art projects."
