Each year final year students in our art and design programmes put on degree shows which showcase their practical work. 

Attending these degree shows is one of the highlights of the year for Suzie Williams, Academic Liaison Librarian for the School of Media and Creative Industries. “I love going to the degree shows each year and seeing the work of students who I have taught during their degree. I can often see themes in their work that echo conversations I have had with them earlier in their studies. What makes it really special is when students are invigilating the exhibition and get to chat with me about their work in situ.”

Suzie picks up a copy of the degree show exhibition catalogues and adds them to the Library collections so that future students can see the nature of work produced by previous student cohorts. The exhibitions catalogues from the 2025 degree shows for BA Artist, Designer, Maker (Glass and Ceramics) and BA Fine Art are now in the St Peter's Library and can be borrowed. Catalogues from previous years are also available for loan.
