The A&D ANNUAL is the largest national showcase of graduate contemporary art and design, launching the next generation of artists, designers, makers and digital media creators.

In 2020, we present the work of more than 150 practitioners across the entire of UNSW Galleries and online.

This year the exhibition encompasses installation, animation, digital media and film, visual communication and graphic design, painting, sculpture, photography, printmaking, sound, furniture and jewellery, textile design, design for social innovation, ceramics and more.
