University of Wolverhampton students to showcase artwork
Talented art students from the Black Country are displaying their work in a show.
Students from the University of Wolverhampton’s faculty of arts are showcasing work they’ve created during their degrees at the University's school of art.
The show is open from Saturday, June 9 until Wednesday, June 20.
Artwork from more than 100 students across 16 degree courses will be on display, covering the areas of applied arts, digital media, fashion and textiles, fine art, graphic communication, illustration, interior design, photography and product design.
The School has exhibited the work of more than 8,000 students since opening its doors at the first degree show in 1969, and has featured some of the brightest new artists and designers in the country.
Sam Hope, head of the Wolverhampton school of art, said: “Our celebratory end of year show is a chance for students to experience first-hand what it’s like to create their own display in a gallery environment. Not only have they crafted and developed ideas, they also learn what kind of work goes into organising and creating a professional exhibition.
“Once again our students have shown outstanding levels of creativity during the course of their studies. They have created some fantastic pieces of work across a variety of disciplines which I’m sure will be enjoyed by everyone who takes the time to come along and view the work.”
Entry is free and open to everyone.
The gallery is open from Monday to Saturday from 10am until 4pm.
