Photo opportunity, 10.30am Tuesday October 28, Cooper Gallery, Duncanof Jordanstone College of Art & Design, University of Dundee.
Potential artists and designers of tomorrow will visit the University of Dundee's Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design early next week for a taster of what life at art college might be like.
More than 1000 students from schools and colleges across Scotland will visit Duncan of Jordanstone for a guided tour of each department on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, taking in Fine Art, Design, Television & Imaging and Architecture.
Visitors will also have the chance to take inspiration from the creations of some of their predecessors viewing successful portfolios from former applicants exhibited in the college's Cooper Gallery.
Robbie Willis of Admissions & Student Recruitment says, "There is always a great deal of interest from schools about the Duncan of Jordanstone visit days. We want to give potential students a good idea of what each department does since although most of the pupils know they want to go to art college they have yet to decide the area in which they would like to specialise."
