Event overview
Our Summer Shows are an excellent representation of the values that are rooted in the University's culture – with a focus on innovation, collaboration, and passion at the heart of everything we do.
On the night of 14 August at 18.00, we open our doors and welcome students and their families, alumni and industry, and visitors to share the magic and be part of the dream factory that is AUB. Our Gallery is the perfect backdrop for this special occasion.
A huge congratulations to all our artists, designers, makers, and researchers who are exhibiting and being celebrated. We wanted to create an event for you to remember and talk about for years to come.
Expect a summer soundtrack curated live by TheGallery’s own professional DJ, William Hernandez Abreu, who's just got back from DJing in Ibiza.
