So I’ve just one upped myself.
I interviewed for this late, just a couple of days ago, because I only discovered and applied for it at the beginning of July.
Thankfully I got accepted during the interview, into a part time MA in Contemporary Art and Archeology. If you’ve seen my Clootie Wells project, you’ll know that, just from that title, the course could have been made for me. I nearly fell off my seat when I found it.
It’s based in Orkney through the University of the Highlands and Islands but is entirely remotely taught. They do a non compulsory winter school every January where you get great access to normally restricted archaeology of which Orkney is a literal treasure trove.
To say I’m quite excited is a massive understatement. I start on the 29th.
