About this course

Level 2 Art and Design Course in Scunthorpe. Classes run at North Lindsey College, full-time during the day over one year. If you're 16 to 18 years old, the course may be free. If you're 19 or over, fees may apply depending on your prior qualifications and personal circumstances. You'll explore painting, drawing, 3D design, sculpture, textiles, and illustration. The year builds toward a final major project where you develop your own ideas and exhibit your work. There are no formal entry requirements, though you'll need to show some previous artwork.

Who this course is for

The course features a final major project at the end of the year in which you will develop your own ideas and will exhibit work with the support of your tutors.
