Fashion & Textile Students Enjoy Workshop

Published 17 January

Designer and artist Joan Murray visited the College to deliver a knitting workshop to Fashion & Textiles students.

Fashion & Textiles Workshop

Joan specialises in knitting and weaving for fashion and brought a huge range of samples, garments, and artwork to share with the students. 

Fashion & Textiles workshop

Joan is just one of the incredible local artists who visit the College on an annual basis and works to inspire students with top-tier experience, knowledge, and creative designs.

Students will use the knit techniques taught at the workshop to develop ideas for their projects which will be showcased at a fashion show later in 2025. 

Laura Lee Brennand, Lecturer in Art & Design said, “It was wonderful to have Joan in college to demonstrate machine knitting techniques to the students. The students value the opportunities to meet a range of practitioners in the industry, so we really appreciate Joan coming in to discuss her experiences of working in the industry and sharing her portfolio with the group.
