The Grand Opening of the New Art Department

The great new Art and Art History rooms were opened in Catherine Building on the afternoon of Thursday 1st July, with our Chair of Governors, Patrick Freely giving a speech and unveiling a plaque to mark the occasion.
Thank you to our Network Manager, Kashif Ibrahim who did a great job displaying some of the digital films the students have made over the years on the new state-of-the-art IT facilities!
There was a broad range of student’s drawings, paintings, printing and 3D work on show and our Art students were on hand to chat about their work and experience studying Art and Art History at St Dominic's.
Everyone expressed their delight at having such a wonderful new space to create exciting artwork for the new academic year and beyond, and recognised the importance of offering Art within the curriculum.
