This year, we welcomed around 500 alumni to our Summer Show Celebrations across 3 Colleges: Chelsea College of Arts, Central Saint Martins and London College of Communication.
The Alumni Summer Show Celebrations are a chance for graduates to re-visit their college and to see all the fantastic work on display from the current graduating cohort. This year, members of staff and students were also on hand to give guided tours of each of the exhibitions.
Below we’ve selected some of our favourite photos from the events.
