Creative Awards Night

Verge warmly invites you to the 2025 USU Creative Awards Night, to celebrate the finalists across the categories of Art, Music, Short Film and Word as we announce the winners from each category.

Platforming the voices of USyd’s emerging creatives, the 2025 USU Creative Awards showcases works engaged with a vast range of themes, including queer identity, representations of femininity, grief and catharsis, the quotidian, and memory.  

Although varying in subject matter, many of the works are grounded in personal experience and navigate socio-political matters pertinent to young people within contemporary society. Featuring finalists across all four categories, the Creative Awards sheds light on the experiences and perspectives of USyd’s student community.
