Arcsoc Events To Look Out For

from ARCSOC Fresher's Guide 2014

Welcome from the President

WHERE DO WE BUY OUR STUFF?

The Arcsoc Shop

The Arcsoc Shop is an informal, student-run provider of your basic architectural needs. We stock highdemand products such as cardboard, paper and glue.

We aim to keep our prices low, and any profit we make goes back into Arcsoc to help make the exhibition a success.

Shop reps are around the studio to sell you anything you need, and if you prefer to pay by card, you can make your own purchases on the website.

Feel free to come talk to us in studio or email us if you have any questions/feedback!

Where else to buy your supplies

Though we try our best to meet students' needs, there are some items we do not stock, due to the nature of their demand.

In Cambridge Tindalls, your local art shop is a 15min walk from studio. http://www.tindalls.co.uk/

For model-making there is London-based 4d model shop: http://modelshop.co.uk/

Amazon also do very good deals for bulk buying.

ARCSOC EVENTS TO LOOK OUT FOR

Get involved!

Everything Arcsoc puts on is to benefit the architects, since it is run by the architects. However, it is us running it, that means when we are preparing for events, all to raise money for the exhibition, we have the potential of an 120 strong workforce, if everyone participates. The more everyone puts in, the more we get out, and the bigger and better our final exhibition will be. So get involved at every stage and you'll enjoy yourself even more when everything comes together!

Exhibition

The Cambridge Architecture students run their own summer architecture exhibition under the patronage of Arcsoc. It's a chance for you to share your work with the specialised public as well with your friends and relatives. It's a beautiful environment to interact with relatives and professional architects and reflect on your year's work.

We encourage all students to participate in this special event. It's very rewarding, and great fun working alongside friends in a relaxed atmosphere in the break.

Pavilion

Pavilion is Arcsoc's brand new branch which creates temporary structures for public events in and around Cambridge. Be it a busker's stage, underground life drawing cavern, or a soup kitchen with a contemporary twist, pavilion offers the chance to realise a proposal at life scale.

Cabaret

Arcsoc is proud to call this event one of the biggest and best parties in Cambridge - invite all your friends! As in most of the Arcsoc run events the really exciting part is that you can actually get involved in organising it! The annual themes are quirky and imaginative, which makes the set design all the more exciting. Not to mention putting together your own crazy outfit!

Talks

Arcsoc Talks invites architectural and design leaders to present their current work and practices. Speakers share insights into their design processes and projects, helping to provide students with a stronger understanding of professional work beyond Part 1.

Films

The weekly Arcsoc films provide a different perspective on architecture through a variety of short films and movies to work alongside your course and inspire you for projects. Check out the Arcsoc page or posters around the department to find out what's playing and when.
