2020 Graduates “One Year On”

Our 2020 Graduates were unable to have their final show due to the pandemic but we are delighted that a number of them have been able to join us this year to celebrate their achievements, as part of a special ‘One Year On’ show at this year’s Festival. They are exhibiting alongside this year’s students in their course areas and we are so pleased to have this opportunity to showcase their work at HCA.

Events

Degree-Level Open Event

Join us on Saturday 10 July 2021, 10am for our in person Degree-Level open event. Although you have already applied to study at HCA, this is a great opportunity for you to explore the college in person and to get a real feel of what life at HCA is like if you haven’t been able to visit just yet. Guided by staff, the event will include the chance to explore all departments, including workshops and your course area. You will be able to meet some of the teaching staff in person who will be able to answer any outstanding questions you may have. Family and friends are also welcome – its always nice for them to see where you will be based for this exciting chapter in your life.

If you would like to come along, we do ask that you book in in advance. To book a place, click here.
