Graduation ceremonies for students from The Northern School of Art‘s classes of 2020 and 2021 were held at the historic venue of St Hilda’s Church on Hartlepool Headland on Tuesday 7 and Wednesday 8 December.
Students attended the events with their families and friends to mark their achievements and celebrate the formal awarding of their degrees that had been postponed due to the pandemic.

Almost 300 students attended the events with their families and friends to mark their achievements and celebrate the formal awarding of their degrees that had been postponed due to the pandemic.
