Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Despite what the weather may be telling us, British summertime is here, and with it comes the culmination of years of hard work from students everywhere.
For students of art and design, this means showcasing their final works in summer exhibitions in which they hope their works will catch the eyes of those on the lookout for the next big thing in emerging talent.
The University of the Arts London is just one of the UK's arts institutions currently showcasing its final year students' works, with over 4,000 students from across its six colleges displaying pieces in art, design, fashion, communication and performance.
