The Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design Masters Show is a dynamic showcase of innovation, creativity, and critical thinking, offering our graduating Masters students the opportunity to present the culmination of a transformative year of intensive research, experimentation, and practice. 

Visiting the show is an excellent opportunity to explore the work of 84 students from ten varied programmes covering a range of artistic disciplines across multiple media and genres, including those not represented at undergraduate level. 

Programmes represented in this year’s show are MSc Animation & VFX, MFA Curatorial Practice. MSc Design for Business, MRes Design, MFA Fine Art, MRes Fine Art, MSc Forensic Art & Facial Imaging, MSc Medical Art. MSc Product Design and MSc Spatial Planning with Sustainable Urban Design. 

The show will be open to the public from Saturday 23 until Sunday 31 August, with a ticketed preview for graduating students’ friends and family on Friday 22 August.  

We look forward to welcoming you to Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design to see the work of our exceptional graduates, celebrate their achievements and wish them all the very best for the future!
