Unlocked Croydon College End of Year Art Exhibition & Art School Taster Week Parfitt Gallery Croydon College College Road, CR9 1DX
A showcase of Croydon College students’ hard work throughout the COVID-19 lockdowns is taking place with a public exhibition. ‘Unlocked’ features the work of final year students, whose studies were disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. As well as acting as an art exhibition, the week-long public viewing in the Parfitt Gallery aims to inspire future students with schools being invited and encouraged to make a visit. For students, there are six workshops along with an interactive tour of the exhibition and art teaching areas.
