Welcome to the Community of Art & Design Students!

We host bi-weekly Craft Clubs and Social Mixers, giving you the oppurtunity to experiment with your art and meet other students across the school of Art and Design!

 

At Leeds Beckett Students’ Union, our academic communities are organised to bring students together across their subject area. This means that you can meet up, network, and socialise with other students on your course or in similar disciplines outside of your own seminar group or course level! Our communities work alongside the Student Community Organisers and Course Representatives, and provide a space to chat about shared aims and issues – giving you the power to make positive change on campus. They’re also a great place to find out about how to get involved in wider community organising campaigns with your Students’ Union.

All students on the following courses are automatically enrolled as part of this academic community. However, if you’d like to join the community from another course, you can register as an associate member!

 The courses that are represented here are:

  • BA(Hons) / MA Fine Art
  • BA(Hons) Product Design
  • BA(Hons) / MA Graphic Design
  • MA 3D Design
  • BA(Hons) Illustration & Animation
  • BA(Hons) / MA Fashion
  • BA(Hons) Fashion Design
  • BA(Hons) Fashion Marketing
  • MA Fashion Comunication
  • MA Creative Direction

We’re so excited for you to get involved and can’t wait to welcome you to your community on campus!
