Arts University Plymouth Undergraduate Graduate Shows 2026

At Arts University Plymouth we believe higher education is a catalyst for personal, professional and cultural transformation, and now more than ever, creative innovation plays a vital role in a globalised society.

You're invited to see our graduates showcase their creative perspectives for a changing world in this year's Private View opening evening of Arts University Plymouth's Graduate Show on Thursday 18 June 2026, 5pm - 8pm. The show will then be open to the public until Thursday 25 June, taking place across our main campus at Tavistock Place and at Studio 11.

We explore new horizons and push the boundaries of creative practice, encouraging students to think of themselves as professionals from their first day on campus. Each year our annual showcase offers students the opportunity to celebrate the culmination of their hard work whilst propelling them into the creative industries.

Are you an employer in the South West? Our NXT.GEN event on Wednesday 24 June is a unique opportunity for you to meet the city's new wave of creative talent, from photographers and filmmakers to animators and designers. Please email brand@aup.ac.uk to enquire about receiving an invitation.
