MA Creative Production and Curatoral Practice

Gain research and entrepreneurial skills needed to sustain your career, with an ethos of fostering a sustainable society mindful of environmental and civic responsibility for our future. Develop your knowledge and skills in publicity, marketing and fundraising, audience development and engagement and leadership and management.
Take part in events and field trips across the UK, from festivals to local special events.
In collaboration with the Arts Council of Wales, you will have the opportunity to apply for the Invigilator Plus Scheme, which has previously given successful students the opportunity to meet and work with peers from other Universities in Wales. In addition to this, students have also invigilated the Welsh pavilion at the Venice Biennale, with a one month residency as part of the promotion team. If you are successful, you will also be part of a mentoring scheme with an established curator or artist.
Engage in critical conversations concerning the formation and engagement of public exhibitions involving Welsh culture and Welsh artists, discussing topics such as the artist as curator, exhibition as an art form, curating performance and cultural production as forms of resilience and activism.
There is also an emphasis on writing for publication, exhibition reviews, curatorial thesis, and audience-facing information texts.
