A Harper’s Bazaar still life from the Hearst partnership

CSVPA Cambridge · U.K.

Hearst. The University of Cambridge. The Fitzwilliam. The National Theatre.

The industry and the city sit in the year — not as a visit, as a brief. Master’s with Hearst Magazines UK. Collaborations the University hosts. A Late at the Fitzwilliam. Connections at the National Theatre.

Collaborations

The rooms a CSVPA year actually enters.

Ānanda Academy does not pretend CSVPA is a college of the University of Cambridge. The collaborations below are real, and they are named honestly.

Hearst Magazines UK

Harper’s Bazaar · Cosmopolitan · Esquire

Hearst Magazines UK

Master’s and BA Fashion Branding students sit a year-long programme: lectures, workshops, mentorship, live briefs, and internship days inside Hearst. Twelve students recently pitched a Harper’s Bazaar licensing concept to the publishing house.

University of Cambridge

Cambridge Festival · St Catharine’s · Jesus · Magdalene

University of Cambridge

Not a college of the University — and still in the room with it. Cambridge Festival. Frauenlob’s Marienleich at St Catharine’s Chapel, with the University of Münster. Jesus College’s 48-hour film challenge. PIPgen at Magdalene’s Denis Murphy Gallery.

Fitzwilliam Museum Late

Third year of the collaboration

Fitzwilliam Museum Late

Students co-curate an after-hours at one of the UK’s great museums. This year, Journeys With Mai — connection, belonging, legacy. Work shown beside the collection, not in a student corridor.

National Theatre Connections

Wildfire Road, 2026

National Theatre Connections

The National Theatre’s nationwide youth festival. CSVPA drama took Wildfire Road — a new play, written for young performers, staged in Cambridge.

Graduate Fashion Week

London · the national rail

Graduate Fashion Week

BA Fashion collections on the GFW schedule. Best of Menswear. Culture & Heritage Design. Next Trend Forecasting. Recruiters including LVMH in the room.

UAL and Falmouth

Awarding and validating

UAL and Falmouth

Fifteen years a University of the Arts London awarding-body centre. Degrees validated by Falmouth University. The diploma a London interview already knows how to read.

A considered next step

Ānanda Academy is the education concierge. CSVPA is the college. We sit with the family until the year, the pathway and the file can be read.
