Despite the artists going on to have varied careers such as social work, teaching, administration and\u00a0 they all agree that their time at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art was a fulfilling time of their lives and they never stopped making art.<\/p>\n

Calum Strathie studied ceramics. He remembers those years being filled with “fun, laughter, learning and friendship” as well as “having a good time with people”. He then worked with several different potters before getting, in his words, a “proper” job in Youth and Social Work. He retired in 2016 and sees this as an “opportunity to return to making pots.”<\/p>\n
