Hello Students!

Last week, we had an inspiring morning connecting with students and recent graduates at the University of Glasgow’s Creative Connections Careers Fair. A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to chat with us and sign up for updates—we loved hearing your stories and learning about your creative journeys.

Exciting Opportunities Ahead!

We’re thrilled to share some fantastic upcoming events that we think you’ll love:

SOUP Event for Students & Graduates

Are you a current student or recent graduate in a creative discipline with a brilliant idea you want to bring to life? Join us for Creative Glasgow’s SOUP Event, part of our Developing Creative Lives and Livelihoods Showcase Day, on Wednesday 26 March!

This event, based on the Detroit SOUP model and inspired by similar events around the world, gives students and graduates the chance to pitch their creative projects in front of a supportive audience. You’ll have four minutes to present your idea, and the audience will vote for their favourite pitch. The winning idea will take home the funds raised on the day. Apply now to take part and bring your ideas to life.

Enjoy a shared lunch, network with like-minded people, and make your mark in the creative community.

Symposium Ticket Offer

Don’t miss out! We’re offering a special half day (£6) ticket for our upcoming Spaces & Places for Creatives Symposium. Grab your tickets now and be part of the conversation!
