## New project to showcase Forth Valley College art students’ talents in a restaurant
Art students from Forth Valley College are set to display their creative talents at the college’s training restaurant in an exciting new project called ‘Gallery at the Gallery’. The collaboration between the Creative Industries and Hospitality departments, along with the Communications and Marketing Department, aims to provide a platform for art, photography, and graphic design students to showcase their work during the Christmas season.
The exhibition will feature a variety of artworks including photographs, drawings, graphic designs, and paintings, which will be on display in the Gallery Restaurant area. Customers enjoying Christmas lunch at the restaurant will have the opportunity to view and purchase the unique artwork, adding an artistic touch to their dining experience.
The initiative is expected to enhance the overall dining experience at the Gallery Training Restaurant and will continue into the new year. Students from different creative disciplines are thrilled to participate in the project, with hopes that it will open doors for their future careers.
Linda Paterson, FVC Curriculum Manager in the Department of Creative, Leisure and Digital Skills, expressed excitement about the opportunity for students to exhibit their work in a different setting. Karyn King, Operations Manager in the Hospitality department, highlighted the collaborative effort between departments to make the project a success.
The project not only provides a platform for students to showcase their talent but also enhances the ambiance of the restaurant for diners. The students are eager to share their creativity with the public and receive feedback on their work.
The ‘Gallery at the Gallery’ project exemplifies the innovative and collaborative spirit at Forth Valley College, providing a unique opportunity for students to gain real-world experience and recognition for their artistic endeavours.
