Discover the work of 17 emerging jewellers and silversmiths at the Goldsmiths’ Centre’s Spotlighting Getting Started exhibition. Showcasing over 50 handcrafted designs, the exhibition celebrates innovative pieces, from kinetic jewellery that engages the senses to brooches design to highlighting the beauty and impact of life and loss, in response to a breast cancer.
All exhibitors are alumni of the Goldsmiths’ Centre’s Getting Started Online business training programme, where they developed essential skills for launching their creative businesses. Following the course, they were invited to apply for the Spotlighting Getting Started exhibition and follow-on training, with selections made by a panel of experts.
