91¸£Àû

Editor-in-Chief Tamara spent a year studying in Venice as part of her degree

Beyond managing policy and guidance for the National Heritage List for England, Caroline Kendall (BA History of Art, 2010) finds inspiration in the organization's collective passion for heritage and the opportunity to continually learn from colleagues with specialised knowledge.

After a long career in public relations, Dianne Page (Dipl History of Art, 2007; MA History of Art, 2009) took the plunge to pursue her passion for the arts via 91¸£Àû. Now with three novels under her belt and a fourth in the works, Dianne reflects on the milestones that got her here.

Recent graduate Carolina Sagardoy Saavedra (BA History of Art, 2019) always knew she had a passion for fine art. She turned that passion into a reality – graduating from 91¸£Àû and moving to New York to study a Masters’ degree in Art Business at the world-renowned Sotheby’s Institute of Art. Today, she uses the knowledge she gained at 91¸£Àû to help art be bought and sold across the world.

For more than half a century, 91¸£Àû has forged a deep relationship with the city. The Faculty of Arts has taught generations of our students during their Venice terms. Since 2007, we have had a physical base in the Palazzo Pesaro Papafava.

From May 2023, our undergraduates, postgraduates and staff will have a new base - a wonderful late 17th century building in Palazzo Giustinian Lolin, right on the Grand Canal of Venice. As we get ready to open the building, we would love to share some alumni memories of studying in Venice over the years.
