The Daphne Oram Gallery is the main exhibition space on the Canterbury campus and is situated in the Daphne Oram Creative Arts building. The building opened in 2019 to nurture the creative talents in the next generation of artistic professionals.
The gallery’s programme comprises up to six exhibitions over the year, and is informed by CCCU’s commitment to social justice and sustainability as well as the teaching and research of the University. There is a particular focus on photography, moving image, games design, and emerging technologies.
Exhibitions include works by both professional artists and designers as well student showcases, practice-based research projects led by CCCU academics, and projects with the community. The gallery hosts talks, films and other events related to the wider exhibition programme to inspire creativity and debate.
