We’re a welcoming and specialist community of makers and creators with a shared passion for the art, experiences and materials we produce.

We believe that an essential ingredient of our success is portfolio interviews. We want to get to know applicants and help them get to know us. Coming to Norwich and NUA is an important early chance to meet and engage with the course team and a great opportunity to see our community at work.
