Hidden - Bath

We like to keep in touch with our old students so we can see what they get up to once they've flown the GiD nest. So it was lovely to hear from Tess the other day to tell us about an exhibition she and other previous foundation students who are now studying in their second year at Bath Spa put on over the last week. Even lovelier to read such a glowing review of it here.
