The Guild of Enamellers Student Bursary Scheme

In 2009 the Guild of Enamellers celebrated it's 30th anniversary; it has established a flourishing membership and is a fine example of what can be achieved when like-minded people come together to promote their work and develop new ideas.

craft&design is proud to support the work of the Guild in co-sponsoring the Guild of Enamellers Student Bursary Scheme, which aims to help a young enameller as they start up in business and provides them with Guild Membership for one year, a place at the Guild's Annual Residential Weekend conference, and a comprehensive package of networking and development opportunities.

Winner of the 2012 Bursary Award is Katja Fox who in 2011 graduated from Sir John Cass, London, where she gained an MA in Metal.

Co-sponsors: W.G. Ball Ltd and Vitrum Signum
