Creative students present…

Students studying Creative subjects at East Sussex College Eastbourne showcase their work in end-of-term shows.

Further Education (FE) and Higher Education (HE) Music students performed as part of the Midway High line-up at the Grove Theatre in Eastbourne last Friday (24th March). The event featured a fantastic mash-up of music genres and styles, with money raised to support the Syria and Turkey earthquake appeal. The gig was filmed and photographed by Media students at the College.

The previous week saw the Music students visit the De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill to observe the sound checks ahead of American R&B/Soul artist, Angie Stone’s performance.

Meanwhile, Art & Design students took part in Collaborate + Exchange, an exciting pop-up exhibition at the Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft (25 & 26 March). The student work was in response to the Museum’s current exhibition, ‘Shōji Hamada: A Japanese Potter in Ditchling’. Students received positive feedback from visitors. The work is now being displayed in the foyer of Eversley House at the Eastbourne campus for staff, students and Open Event visitors to see.

Matt Kemp, Head of Creative Studies at ESC Eastbourne, says, “These recent shows have been a fantastic opportunity for our students to be involved in. We are incredibly proud of their hard work and the feedback received. We look forward to our end-of-year shows in the upcoming terms.”
