Art and the City: Leeds College of Art | Axisweb

In the run up to the British Art Show 8 which opened in Leeds in October 2015, we made a series of films spotlighting different aspects of the visual art scene in the city. Our second film is about Leeds College of Art.

Leeds College of Art is one of the few remaining independent, specialist art colleges in the UK. We went along to the opening of their 2015 degree show and talked to staff and graduating students about the college and its cultural position within the city.

This series of films is supported by Leeds Inspired.
Leeds Inspired is part of the city's cultural programme that celebrates arts events and projects throughout the year, supporting high quality, accessible cultural experiences for Leeds’s residents and visitors. Founded in 2012, Leeds Inspired supports culture in the city through grants schemes, commissions and a 'What's On' events website. Leeds Inspired is part of Leeds City Council.
