Students from St Helens College’s Creative Arts department have been recognised for their talent, creativity, and dedication at this year’s End of Year Exhibition and Awards Ceremony.

Friends and family were invited to a special private viewing of the exhibition, titled MIX25, which showcased work from across Art and Design, Game Art and Animation, Creative Media, and Photography. The displays were immersive, thought-provoking, and a testament to the students’ hard work throughout the year.

Following the exhibition, guests gathered in the Library Amphitheatre for a celebratory Awards Ceremony. Prizes were presented for both “Rising Star” and “Student of the Year,” recognising students for their outstanding attendance, talent, commitment, and enthusiasm.

Shirley, Art and Design tutor, said:

“We are incredibly proud of all our students. Whether they’re heading off to universities across the country or continuing their creative journey with us here at St Helens College and University Centre St Helens, we can’t wait to see what they do next.”

Congratulations to all our students for their hard work and achievements this year, and a special well done to our award winners:
