In response to the launch of the Les Visionnaires Scholarship Fund, our alumni including Dylan Jones, Giles Deacon, Sebastian Conran and Jarvis Cocker have contributed wonderful designs. They can be viewed in the newly published catalogue on Issuu.com.

The artworks and other donated pieces will be auctioned on Thursday, 2 July at Central Saint Martins. Advanced bidding is now open.

If you are interested in attending the auction please email e.wintram@csm.arts.ac.uk.

The fund will help to ensure that our brightest talents have the opportunity to study at postgraduate level at CSM, regardless of background. The brief was to create artwork inspired by their interpretation of what it means to ‘Fly Beyond’.
