Last night’s private view was great success. The evening started with Ginny Button (Head of the School of Art) announcing the School Awards. BA Illustration had 3 winners. Sarah Clifford won the ‘Outstanding Studentship’ award, David Doran won ‘Outsanding Student Achievement’ award and Rosalie. Darien Jones won the ‘Taplin Travel Bursary’ award.

The exhibition itself was packed and the sun was shining on what clearly was the hottest day of the year so far. There was a great atmosphere of celebration that was add

ed to by the distant sounds of the samba band that was playing outside mixing with the distant sound of the Falmouth sea Shanty Festival in Events Square. It was great to see some longstanding friends of the Course in attendance such as Gary Long and Professor John Vernon Lord.

It seems only a short time ago that the current graduating students were being interviewed for their places on the course. They have achieved an enormous amount during their three years and the staff wish them the best for the future. Now onto New Designers and D&AD New Blood…..

Here are some photo’s from the evening..
