UCL Festival of Culture - one week to go

This year's UCL Festival of Culture explores some important and contemporary issues such as the migration crisis, identity, homelessness and brings all of these issues to life through talks, theatre, exhibitions, live readings and workshops. In its third year, the five-day festival is free and open to all, and provides a great opportunity for the public to come onto campus to see world-class research being delivered by UCL Arts & Humanities, UCL Social & Historical Sciences and UCL School of Slavonic & East European Studies. It's also a chance to shine a light on the interdisciplinary work that takes places across partner faculties and schools, including UCL Institute of Education. 'It goes without saying that UCL's arts and social sciences don't exist in a vacuum,' says Professor Stella Bruzzi, Dean of the Faculty of Arts & Humanities. 'In this year's festival you'll find our activities showcased alongside contributions from several of our partner faculties. I'm delighted that the work of so many of my brilliant colleagues is being shared at UCL Festival of Culture, which again offers memorable glimpses into what we do.' 'I hope, like me you will take the opportunity to celebrate the exceptional work that is being undertaken in the arts, humanities and social sciences across UCL. With over 50 exhibitions, film screenings, panel discussions, performances, talks and visits, there really is something for everyone,' says Professor Anthony Smith, Vice-Provost (Education & Student Affairs).
