Great idea. Art societies have been limited for so long as to what activities they can hold.

I would love to have a space where I can work outside of the small space of my room and keep art materials, as well as get to meet other artists in the area.

About time! There is a glaring lack of art and design opportunities in the Durham University offering.

Agree with the comments below - millions on art works that they keep locked away on a tour-only basis, but not even a small studio the size of a boathouse for any actual artists.

This is a great idea for the students to be able to set down some roots in one area without having to waste time packing up only to have to set up again for the next session

In a university lacking an art department, yet bursting with artistic talent, it is a great shame that there isn't some studio space to help out. The university has spent millions of pounds on acquiring art (and most of it locked away in areas that students aren't normally allowed to go to)- might be nice to spend a little of that money on some actual art-inclined students.

Durham is severely lacking in this department and this could help with the dipping mental health of your students. What is more important at the end of the day?

It would be incredibly useful to have a studio/art room as a central location for colleges, other societies, outreach and community engagement activities, and individual students to use for artistic projects in the Durham campus.

Although I'm studying for a degree in Archaeology I did art at A-level, and I definitely found it benefited my overall academic experience as sometimes it provided relief from stressful deadlines and studying. I would therefore love to see some more access to creative spaces in Durham, particularly as there is other great support for the arts in areas such as music and Drama.
I think that this is a great idea.

We want a studio space!
