It's summer... which can only mean one thing!
There's an excitement and anticipation in the air this weekend with the opening of the Graduate Exhibitions at both DIT School of Creative Arts and IADT tomorrow, 5th June 2015, followed by NCAD's Graduate show on the 13th June. All shows will be on campus, although we have a feeling DIT's LIFT OFF will be the most highly anticipated, as it will be the first on the new Grangegorman campus.
Of course at Qualia Dublin we have been looking forward to seeing what our peers have been getting up to during their final year, and without doubt there will be some out there that will take our breathe away.
Don't miss it folks!
