On 20 July, Cambridge School of Art played host to a party of 30 students from Tsinghua's Academy of Arts and Design as part of an ongoing collaboration.

Accompanying the students were Professor Wang Jiang Zhong and Vice Professor Qin Dai-Hua, Director of the Department of Textile & Fashion Design.

The students were particularly interested in the Fashion Design facilities, asking Course Leader Dr Wendy Moody many perceptive questions about Fashion Design in the UK and our course at Anglia Ruskin University. Our specialist printmaking facilities particularly impressed and the students were pleased to meet and talk to MA Printmaking convenor Nick Devison and postgraduate students.

Our thanks go to Paul Marris and Mick Gowar for their presentations, tours and making the group feel most welcome.

We look forward to working closely with Tsinghua's Academy of Arts and Design in the future.
