Year 2 - end of teaching block 2 report
The MA Fine Art story this year - Peter Missen 26/03/2013

Ceramics and Glass workshops now our new MA Fine Art Space
Poignant that we are back in the same space that was such a hive of activity during the summer
Still very pissed off that the fabulous facilities that formerly occupied our new MA space were cast out by the University authorities...
24/7/365 access would be most appropriate for a research degree I had this 25 years ago on my last Masters
degree!
