Leeds Arts University announces Made It 2025 Show

Exhibition

Leeds Arts University is delighted to announce Made It, our 2025 end of year show, celebrating the creativity and dedication of our final year students.

From 16-21 June our Blenheim Walk campus will be transformed into a large-scale exhibition space, showcasing the creative talent from across our undergraduate degree courses, offering a valuable opportunity for industry professionals and the wider creative community to engage with the work of our graduating students. Students from our further education courses will present their final work at our Vernon Street campus from 2-7 June.

The undergraduate exhibition will also feature a catwalk show produced by BA (Hons) Fashion Design students, live performances by BMus (Hons) Popular Music Performance and BA (Hons) Creative Writing students, and an industry screening of work produced by our BA (Hons) Filmmaking students.

The ever-popular Art Market will be open for visitors to purchase artwork created by students at both the undergraduate and further education shows.

“We are delighted to showcase the bold creativity and commitment of our students in our annual end of year show. This vibrant exhibition is a real testament to the diversity of talent fostered at Leeds Arts University, and we hope that our visitors enjoy the work on show as much as we have."

Professor Simone Wonnacott, Vice-Chancellor, Leeds Arts University

The branding for Made It was designed by BA (Hons) Graphic Design student Tom Aggett. The design blends a minimal typographic approach with a crafty and creative feel, with varied illustrations representing the diverse creative practices of students from across all courses. The arrow at the finish line ties the illustrations together showing that, no matter their process or journey at university, they all Made It.

"I'm delighted to have had my branding proposal picked for the end-of-year show. 'Made It' aims to capture the varied journeys of a student using simple squiggles, while focusing on celebrating the work that has been made along the way."

Tom Aggett, BA (Hons) Graphic Design student

Made It is a free exhibition, open to all, and no booking is required. The fashion show and film screening by invitation only.
