evaluation of print auction event image
Overall the print auction came together really well, and everyone's efforts made for a good night for everyone. After the event the 2nd years had a reflection session where we looked at what went well within the process of planning the the print auction and the event itself. Here is what we came up with:

  • Too many people in charge of similar roles
  • Communication was lack at times or no communication at all
  • At the start of the project the meetings were structured, but as the project went on they became less frequent and not as many people turned up.
  • Attendance of students at meetings
  • Everything came together
  • We made a few mistakes with the start time of the event this year, however, this is something that we will know for next year
  • Space was useful- New Social space 
Things we would differently if we were to do it again:
  • Possible ticket system for drinks, so that only one 'welcome' drink is taken by each individual attending
  • Possible use of the cart, could use this for postcards/mini prints- something to entice individuals into the print auction.
  • Emphasis on student prints
  • No limit on student prints being given
  • Create a template asking for prints and also thank you letter
  • Organise images and bios sooner than was done the previous year
  • Distribute posters outside of college campus e.g. art shops, local shops (Barbican), the big screen in town 
  • Managers should be aware of the social media log in details so that they can monitor content and if necessary make changes
