Webster Geneva Campus celebrated creativity and innovation during the 10th annual Media Showcase, an event established in 2014 to spotlight exceptional student work from Webster and local schools.
Held every December, the showcase features projects produced in media classes by Webster students, alongside contributions from Collège du Léman and Ecolint La Grande Boissière. From its inception, the event was designed as a collaborative effort, with Webster event organizers reaching out to teachers and heads of art programs at prominent local schools.
As part of the showcase, students present their work in front of a crowd of family, friends, peers and professors. It offers students an opportunity to explain details of their creative process and share inspiration behind their pieces.

In addition to the main showcase, an art exhibition in the Gorlok Gallery displayed remarkable works from all participating institutions. The collaborative platform has allowed students to share their creations and exchange ideas across schools, growing in quality and scope over the years.

“The Media Showcase not only highlights the exceptional work produced by Webster's Media Program but also provides young students from local private schools with the invaluable experience of presenting their projects to a live audience,” said Francesco Arese Visconti, PhD, deputy academic director and head of the Media Studies program at Webster Geneva.
A highlight of the event was the awarding of prizes for standout presentations. This year's winners included Faraz Jamaminouh and Danila Sandulov from Webster Geneva Campus, Kira Krivstov from Collège du Léman and Hadrian Guiguet from Ecolint La Grande Boissière.
“This collaborative effort underscores Webster's dedication to excellence and its role in nurturing talent within the broader educational and artistic community,” shared Arese Visconti. “We plan to continue this enriching partnership in the coming years.”
