South Asian Heritage Celebration

We’re bringing the energy, culture, and flavour— and you’re invited! Join us for an evening of celebration featuring:

A stunning showcase of 16 student works from across UAL campuses, displayed in the SU Project Space — right in front of Camberwell reception.

Pop-Up Photography Exhibition

Specially curated for this celebration, displaying projects by 4 UAL students, exhibited in the Camberwell canteen.

Activities are hosted by student societies from Arts SU — including the Indian Society, Islamic Society, and Calligraphy Society. Each society will host a stall in the Camberwell canteen.

Heart of Heritage

This year’s theme, Heart of Heritage, celebrates the essence of South Asian identity — its languages, traditions, cuisine, art, and stories. It’s a space for reflection and exploration, showcasing how cultural practices evolve, adapt, and are passed down through generations and across borders. From personal storytelling to traditional art forms, this celebration embraces all expressions of heritage.
