When I first read what BA Arts Management was on the website, I could not believe such a course existed. A combination of arts and entrepreneurship and all of it is based in London! So, I decided to give it a go. As a BA Arts Management graduate, I can say, it was even better in the real life. Studying at Goldsmiths was a joy and a constant inspiration.

The course is created by the most supportive team of lecturers and arts managers who really prepared me for what was to come after graduation. BA Arts Management at Goldsmiths is a unique combination of arts, entrepreneurship and inspiration to challenge the status quo.

During the course, the staff made sure students were informed about art-related voluntary and paid opportunities – a perfect way to gain out-of-university experience.

In my second year, I was successful in securing a voluntary position at a local theatre, after following up on a university announcement. Shortly after I was offered a paid job, and I have stayed with the company till today, developing a passion for arts education.

The course has prepared me to work in a wide range of art forms and environments - from commercial galleries to free local festivals - which has definitely helped me while looking and applying for jobs.

The interdisciplinary experience gained while at Goldsmiths and my part-time job at the theatre helped me secure a permanent position as Community Music & Instrument Administrator at Lewisham Music. I help deliver a music education programme for young people across the Lewisham Borough.
