To celebrate Post-Grad Community's 10 year anniversary, we invited postgraduate alumni and current students from all UAL colleges to our Valentine's Day matchmaking mixer.

In order to form and cultivate connections, Post-Grad Community openly invited UAL postgraduate students to a networking event held in Chelsea College of Arts Banqueting Hall for an evening of meeting current students and alumni.

This was an inaugural networking event for the Post-Grad Community, aimed at encouraging collaboration and seeking professional connections in order to discover and nurture likeminded students and professionals.

Attendees were invited to submit an image that reflected their work and we decorated the tables in the hall with them, helping to stimulate conversations between those who joined us.

We would like to thank the UAL Alumni team for support in promoting the event to the vast network of UAL postgraduate alumnus, alongside those who attended and made such strong and long lasting connections.
