What happens when creative talent, live industry experience and an iconic Bristol landmark come together?

✨ Echoes of Light ✨

As part of Bristol Cathedral’s Organ Festival, our City of Bristol College Art & Design students collaborated with projection artist James Bragg to transform Bristol Cathedral into an immersive experience of sound, light and architecture.

Seeing our students’ ideas brought to life at such scale, inside one of Bristol’s most historic spaces, was a powerful reminder of what creative education can achieve when students are trusted to think boldly and create professionally.

We were also delighted to welcome Bristol24/7 and BCfm Radio to experience the installation and meet the talented students behind the work.

A huge congratulations to everyone involved for creating something truly unforgettable.
