A short summary of your project
Welcome to our crowd funder for Aquae Sulis - an exhibition taking place at the OXO Tower Gallery in London, showcasing work from 31 graduate art students. At this important juncture in our artistic careers, where we look to take our next steps, we are organising a showcase exhibition to allow us to promote our practices to a wide audience.

Your story
The exhibition will feature and celebrate a diverse range of artists and their work. We have designed this show to operate as a celebratory space that amplifies our work as graduating artists and highlights the diverse, multi-disciplinary projects and practices we hold as a collective. At Aquae Sulis, you’ll discover painting, sculpture, ceramics, photography, print, performance and more. A celebration of art, a celebration of things to come - join us, it's going to be fun.

The rest of the fundraising will cover costs such as the logistics of getting the work from Bath to London, marketing, security, and catering.
