UAL Awarding Body’s annual celebration of student achievement, Origins Creatives, made its highly anticipated return in July 2025! We were thrilled to once again host the exhibition at the prestigious Mall Galleries in Central London, from 16–19 July 2025.
Origins Creatives is an opportunity for students, teachers and families to come together and celebrate student creativity and hard work. It brought together student work from across the UAL subject areas of Art and Design, Fashion Business and Retail, Creative Media, Music Performance and Production, Performing Arts, Entry Level 3 in Art and Design and Performing Arts, Professional Diplomas, and the Extended Project Qualification.
This year, we were delighted to see around 2,000 people take the time to visit the exhibition. The visitors got to see an inspiring selection of over 150 pieces of works by the incredibly talented UAL Awarding Body students.
