Arts and Culture
In Arts & Culture we programme artistic events for students and the general public. Our work is extremely varied, ranging from lunchtime concerts to residencies, talks, masterclasses, screenings, workshops, exhibitions and festivals. Our work is largely allied to the University’s teaching and research in the arts and innovation, showcasing our own creative talent as well as visiting artists and practitioners of international distinction. Our year-round programme includes events that are linked to the development work of our colleagues in the Development and Alumni Relations Office (DARO).
Events
DARO has an exciting programme of events. Please see below for more information and follow us on Facebook and Twitter
