CAVC and For Cardiff Showcase in Cardiff High Street Arcades

Cardiff and Vale College are delighted to present this project supported by For Cardiff in High Street Arcade, Queens Arcade and Dominions Arcade.

Across empty walls, shop windows and vacant spaces in the arcades of Cardiff the Art Foundation has taken to the streets. Work showcases 25/26 Art Foundation work from our fantastic students. These creative students have worked with enthusiasm, hard work and ambition to produce the work you see before you. These images showcase Final Major Projects which sits in one of four major pathways, Fine Art, 3D, Graphics and Illustration and Fashion and Textiles.

The Art Foundation course provides students with a space to explore new materials and approaches, build creative portfolios and leave with the ability to take their next creative steps with confidence. Core to the course is a sense of exploration, critical thinking and helping students develop their creative ambitions for the future.

Applications are open for next academic year.

This project has been made possible through support and funding from Cardiff and Vale College's Welsh and Creative Departments. As part of this project learners heard from For Cardiff who discussed the use Welsh in the workplace, the advantages using Welsh can provide for future employment and possible funding opportunities available to our learners.
