Students Union Come learn more about our Students’ Union, which is ran entirely by students for the students at The Northern School of Art. The SU has put on loads of different events this year including a Winter Ball, Mario Kart & Pizza Night, Galentines, Rocky Horror Night to Pride March which is a series of events through March led by our LGBTQ+ Society. Events and activities are ran by students from right across the School and from all of the programmes, this means we get a diverse and ever changing offer and an ever changing selection of clubs and societies taking place at any time. Our SU President, Georgia, leads our team of 9 SU Exec Officers who run the SU on a day-to-day basis with roles covering Vice President’s, Sustainability, LGBTQ+, Communications, Activities and more.
