LCC's graduating students are encouraged to participate in and exhibit their work to UAL Showcase, online platform that promotes recent graduates, as part of this year’s LCC Shows 2024. UAL Showcase is a brilliant opportunity to make connections with future employers and creative collaborators.

About UAL Showcase

UAL Showcase champions graduating UAL students and helps them connect with industry professionals and potential future employers.

The site supports recent graduates as they embark on their professional careers. All final-year students from our Further Education, Undergraduate and Postgraduate courses can upload projects to be promoted by UAL for 12- months after their courses end.

Creative industry professionals use the platform to source and hire UAL graduates. By uploading their work, previous students have:

• landed jobs
• received freelance commissions
• been discovered by galleries
• secured solo shows
• sold their work.

What do I need?

You will need a Portfolio account to upload your work.

We have created several useful guides and resources to help you make the most of the UAL Showcase platform.

Visit the UAL Showcase: practical info web page for guidance on how to upload your work to the Graduate Showcase platform and watch the UAL Showcase – How to upload your work video on YouTube.

When should I upload?

To ensure your project is reviewed in time for the shows, please upload your work as early as possible from Monday 4 November onwards. This will guarantee your work will be showcased on the platform during the onsite Shows.

What happens after I submit my work?

Please be aware that your work will not immediately appear on the platform.

Your profile will be processed and reviewed by our team. During this process, our college teams will ensure that work submitted to the platform meets the policy guidelines and check for errors before approving the work to be live on the website.
