This year we’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of our Graduate Solo Exhibition Award, an annual prize awarded to a Manchester Metropolitan University graduate who shows exceptional talent and potential.

The Award supports designer-makers in the challenging period between graduation and setting up their creative business, and includes a year of bespoke professional development support from our team as well as a solo exhibition.

Our 10th winner’s exhibition, Behind Closed Doors: Ceramics by Verity Howard, runs from 25 Feb to 29 May 2016, and we’ve programmed 10 celebratory events, activities and commissions to accompany the exhibition, including a limited edition souvenir newspaper which features interviews with all 10 winners on how winning the Award has impacted their careers, and what advice they would give to students in their final year.

Download the paper below or call into the Centre to pick up a souvenir copy – while stocks last!
