ART Connect

Welcome to the ART Connect Project, a dynamic initiative that brings together the talents of the University of Malta students and the creative essence of our community. The University of Malta Library aims to transform the Library space into a vibrant canvas for artistic expression, innovation, and interdisciplinary collaboration.

What is ART Connect?

ART Connect is more than an initiative; it's a fusion of art, culture, and knowledge. We believe that art has the power to inspire, provoke, and unite, and by bringing art into our Library, we are creating an environment that celebrates creativity on every level. This project offers students a unique platform to showcase their artistic creations, ranging from paintings and photography to digital media and installations.

Why ART Connect?

  • For Students: ART Connect provides an exceptional opportunity for students to share their artistic talents with the university community. Your creations will be on display, offering a chance to gain recognition and inspire your peers.
  • For the University Community: Immerse yourself in a world where art meets academia. Experience the synergy of creativity and knowledge, and witness the transformation of our Library into a cultural hub.
  • For the Library: ART Connect enriches the Library environment, making it a space where ideas, creativity, and collaboration thrive. The Library becomes a canvas of diversity and cultural expression.

Guidelines for Submission
