I would say that if you are interested in a creative job but are unsure which direction to take, the Art & Design courses at Lancaster & Morecambe College can offer you the guidance and skills to help you make that decision and take the next step.

Zack is currently in his first year of the Art & Design Level 3 course at Lancaster & Morecambe College. He chose to study this course because he hopes to attend university after College and aspires to become an architect in the future.

After completing Years 7-11 at Central Lancaster High School, I started Sixth Form at Our Lady's Catholic College and it quickly became apparent that this wasn't right for me, so I switched to the Art & Design Level 3 course at LMC as it offered a great course, which was more suitable for me. I want to study Architecture in the future at university, so this course will give me the experience and knowledge to help me to progress to that next step.

The key skills that Zack has developed at LMC so far include how to work independently, and he has also learned how to use and experiment with different materials and media in his work.

The best part of the course is that it allows me to do what I enjoy – drawing from my own pictures and incorporating shapes from my research. I also enjoy photography, mainly taking photos of shapes, forms and structures, which I am then able to use the photos for my Art & Design projects.

Zack’s biggest accomplishment on his Level 3 course so far is completing his 3D project for which he created an architectural-inspired lamp.

I would say that if you are interested in a creative job but are unsure which direction to take, the Art & Design courses at Lancaster & Morecambe College can offer you the guidance and skills to help you make that decision and take the next step.

After completing the course, Zack hopes to build on the knowledge and creative skills he’s developed while studying Art & Design at College. His goal is to progress to university, continue growing as a designer, and ultimately pursue a career in Architecture.
