Students Launch Summer Show In Style

Weston College launched its annual Creative Arts Summer Show last week, showcasing work from further and higher education students.

Students and staff from across the Creative Arts faculty came together to put on a spectacular opening night which saw around 1,500 visitors view the students’ work and watch a variety of music performances in the sunshine.

There was also street food and refreshments available on opening night, encouraging people of all ages to visit the show with their families.

Hundreds of students from across the Creative Arts faculty are participating in the event, which showcases work from art and design, media, music, performing arts and many more course areas.

Farhath Siddiqui, who studies FdA Film and Media Arts Production at UCW and has made a vlog about the event, said: “This is my fifth Summer Show and they get better and better every year.

“It is so nice to see everyone come together to showcase their work, and also just have a good time, chill and celebrate our achievements on opening night.”

Sarah Clark, Creative Arts Head of Faculty, added: “I would just like to thank and congratulate all staff and students involved in the Creative Arts Summer Show 2017.

“Opening night was a huge success with no issues and overwhelming positive feedback and words of support from visitors.”

The show is currently still open to the public until Thursday 22nd June, between 10.30am – 4.30pm on weekdays.
