AWESOME! ASTONISHING! AMAZING! ...DON’T MISS ANYTHING!

From the deepest city block emerges a talent so powerful and dynamic, that it cannot be ignored... it’s the CITY superheroes - our students! - fighting the never ending battle against mediocrity and all things average.

We have an incredible thirty two individual shows across four campuses, with every show paying homage to the creative genius of our students.

Browse the very best work from our ‘superhero’ students - displays, models, paintings, furniture, jewellery, animations, writings and creative cakes and take the opportunity to go behind the scenes, learn more about courses and meet staff and students across the huge selection of course areas.

Your mission is to use this Guide to select and reach your target shows. Every show is signposted, but with imminent danger lurking around every corner, should you have any difficulty in finding your way around, staff, students and other City Heroes will be happy to help.

ENJOY!
