We’ll be running an art exhibition in the Student Life Building on the theme of ‘Hidden Disability and what it means to you’. You don’t have to be an art student to produce work; we’d love to see work from a variety of faculties, and from both students and staff!

This is a workshop for you to create your artwork to submit to the exhibition! We will have materials available for you to create 2D works up to A2 size that will later be exhibited in our exhibition.
