Working With/In Illustration – Grad Events MA Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts

The Hub space in Peckham is to host a series of public facing events organised and delivered by graduating students from MA Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts.

Through their final major projects the students have explored a variety of professional contexts within which to situate an illustrative practice; employing different modes of dissemination to engage with a variety of audiences; taking an expanded approach to professionalism that incorporates working within research, education, publishing, self-publishing, cultural institutions, residencies, collective work and studio-based entrepreneurism. This program of student organised events marks both the end of their 15-month MA and the beginning of their professional futures.
