30 Years B-A-D: 30th anniversary of the Faculty of Art and Design
The Faculty of Art and Design at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar celebrated its 30th anniversary with an evening party on Friday, 7 June 2024. Numerous alumni, former teaching staff and current students came together in the so-called Produktdesigner-Hof (Product Designer Courtyard) behind the Van de Velde Building. We look back on an evening full of (re)encounters, inspiring conversations and lots of fun. Visual Communication alumnus Jannis Uffrecht captured the best moments in pictures.
