Course details
The Art, Craft & Design course at Rossa College is now a long established Arts Foundation course in West Cork. We have very strong links with many Art Colleges in Ireland & in the UK, particularly with the Crawford College in Cork and the DIT course in Sherkin Island, where many of our students have gone on to specialise in their chosen field. Our students are given the opportunity to improve their skills & to widen their understanding & appreciation of art through professional guidance.
We encourage our students to explore a variety of media & skills and to develop a vocabulary for evaluating their own work and the work of others. At the completion of this course you will have an extensive & varied portfolio of work.
We welcome people with some background in the Art & Crafts as well as those who wish to learn new skills and meet stimulating challenges.
