The Western Balkans Graduate Showcase presents outstanding graduate projects from across the Balkans, providing an international platform for emerging designers in architecture, fashion, digital design, graphic design, industrial design, interior design, product design and textiles.
Created to increase the visibility of young creative talent and strengthen connections between higher education and the creative industries, the Showcase introduces the Balkans' most promising graduates to a global audience of employers, collaborators, educators and design enthusiasts.
The Showcase is a joint initiative of Arts Thread (UK) and Mikser Association (Serbia), developed through the Design Link project with the support of the British Council's WB-UK Creative Economy Sector Development Fund.
Selected projects are featured across both partners' digital platforms and communication channels and are automatically considered for inclusion in the Arts Thread Global Creative Graduate Showcase, creating new opportunities for international visibility, professional recognition and cross-border collaboration while highlighting the richness, diversity and innovation of contemporary design emerging from the Balkans.
