The Fine Art Antiracism Forum formed in October 2020 to discuss ways we in the department can work together towards anti-racism goals and enhance racial literacy amongst staff and students. 

As part of this ongoing work, we’re excited to announce a series of talks and seminars which focus on student experience and approaches to teaching and art practice that provide alternatives to contemporary art cultures that privilege whiteness and are founded on racist traditions.

OPEN STUDIOS is a great opportunity for our Fine Art community to come together and share some of the incredible work taking place in the department.
If you have not been involved before this is when we tidy up ALL of the studios (UG and MFA) and you present work in progress in your studio space. This year it also coincides with the second week of the Year 4 Interim shows that take place in the all bookable spaces – so lots of exciting stuff happening everywhere in the building.

The Bauhaus is one of the most renowned experimental sites of education in the arts and in design. At regular intervals the Bauhaus Dessau invites international universities and art academies to the historic workshops of the Bauhaus in order to develop and apply contemporary models for education in art and design.

This is an opportunity for 15 Fine Art students (Year 3 and 4) to take part in an Open Studio short residency (3 days) working in collaboration with Northumbria University Newcastle final year interior design students

Sabina Sallis and Irene Brown are heading up the GREEN FINGER FORUM where those interested in organic gardening, green issues and art can get together.  The forum is centred on reclaiming a very neglected garden at the back of two buildings on Windsor Terrace and using it to grow vegetables and other plants in the coming year.  

I am looking to recruit a team of students who want to help me organise/set up and run our life drawing sessions in the department again!
