Introduction
the introduction of an alumni exhibition is an exciting and important development in our calendar. this exhibition will now feature in the university art gallery every second year. For current students this offers an excellent opportunity to see the diverse and high quality work our graduates go on to produce. It also gives our own students an important insight into life after graduation, and the chance to talk to alumni and compare their experiences.
Faculty in the department relish this opportunity to gauge the long-term benefits of their teaching. the reception of the exhibition, which marks its opening, is a highly enjoyable evening when alumni and faculty are able to re-unite and hear news regarding their careers and artwork as well as more general topics. In the Department of art we are committed to inviting alumni back to events such as this evening so they may continue to feel an important part of the Department and university
