The UC Art Acquisitions Committee seeks to support emerging Canterbury artists by showcasing the excellent work of our final year and postgraduate students, and acquiring examples of their work for the University’s permanent art collection. This is an opportunity for students to take part in an exciting exhibition and have their work represented in a major public collection.

The UC Art Acquisitions Committee acquires a maximum of four pieces for its permanent collection from those artworks in the annual exhibition. The works to be acquired are chosen by a guest judge.
