Global Design Graduate Show 2023

Arts Thread announced the launch of Global Design Graduate Show 2023, with GUCCI returning as the exclusive sponsor for their fourth consecutive year. Launching at the same time is the Global Design Graduate Shows virtual gallery & stories on Google Arts & Culture, who through our relationship with Gucci, have agreed to support the initiative. Please see below links to the Global Design Graduate Show area on Google Arts & Culture. 

 

Just like previous years, Arts Thread will showcase all of the finest end-of-year work from all creative students graduating this year in every art & design category, such as visual communication, film, fashion, textiles, interior, architecture, visual arts, contemporary craft, industrial & product design and more. 

 

Last year's Global Design Graduate Show was a huge success with 5489 entries representing 117 countries from 439 higher education institutions, surpassing the previous year's achievement. There was a combined editorial and social reach of 23 million. Over the last 3 years hundreds have gained employment or launched their own brands thanks to this proactive initiative - making it the only global showcase of graduating artists & designers worldwide.

 

This year sees Arts Threads Global Design Graduate Show partner with Google Arts & Culture GA&C to create an area on the GA&C site showcasing the success stories of previous Global Design Graduate Show winners as well as a virtual gallery for the winners from 2022. The collaboration with Google Arts and Culture means that studentswork will reach a further audience which can help launch their independent businesses or gain employment within the creative industries.

The Global Design Graduate Show 2022 saw great success, with even more art and design students from across the globe submitting their final end of year projects onto the Arts Thread digital platform than in 2021. Global Design Graduate Show 2022 stats:

 

      5,489 entries in total to the online showcase

      117 nationalities

      439 art & design universities/colleges worldwide took part

      500 students were shortlisted from the entries received by our panel of independent expert judges

      187,352 votes cast in the public vote

      150 Industry judges 

 

The Global Design Graduate Show 2023 is now open to all art and design students graduating in the Academic Year 2022-23 - i.e. September 2022 to August 2023 (undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate) in any related creative discipline, located anywhere in the world.
