Festival of Creativity

April-July 2024

The Festival of Creativity showcases the work of Sheffield Hallam University’s graduating students, including artists, designers, filmmakers, animators, writers, architects and performers. We ask emerging creatives to show us the future through exhibitions, events, performances and screenings.

We aim to present creative proposals to real problems: from new fashion to new videogames human-centred approaches to the built environment to greater sustainability in the products we buy.

These ‘creatives’ propose new brands and services, help us glimpse alternative realities, and launch new enterprises, but most of all they tell stories, documenting the world as they find it and how they’d like it to be.

The Festival of Creativity takes place across Sheffield city centre through April, May, June and July 2024.
