In June 2026, SAA presented CONNECT: SAA End of Year Show 2026, featuring performances, exhibitions, screenings and much more. As part of the WE ARE KENT weekend, our students showcased their best work of the past academic year.<\/p>\n
CONNECT included all of our discipline, from architecture to drama, from history of art to film and media, from graphic design to urban planning via spatial and interior design. Thought-provoking, technically brilliant, and occasionally completely unexpected \u2013 this was student work at its finest. It was co-organised and co-curated by staff and students, beginning on 18 June at the Gulbenkian Theatre with Gulb Picks, a selection of the best short performances by final year Drama student companies.<\/p>\n
On 19 June, CONNECT invited everyone to visit the Marlowe Building for an interdisciplinary exhibition comprising original drawings, posters, models, photos, videos, installations, site-specific performances and a curated show of prints from the University collection. The End of Year Show also featured work by students at the Xianda University in Shanghai, a strategic School partner. A huge thank you to all our amazing SAA EOYS student leads who designed the event branding and helped install, curate and deliver the show.<\/p>\n
