Principal Steven Mifsud officially opened the 2025 Year 12 Visual Arts and Technology Exhibition, Called to Inspire, on Tuesday 14 October in the Damascus Events Centre. In his address, Steven warmly welcomed students, families, staff and special guests, acknowledging the creativity, innovation and personal growth of the graduating class. He reflected on how events such as this embody the Damascus College Vision – Inspired by Christ’s Mercy, Welcoming Community, Transforming self, others and the world.

The exhibition, which brought together outstanding work from Visual Communication Design, Art: Creative Practice, Media, Systems Engineering and Product Design & Technology, was a powerful expression of students’ curiosity, courage and compassion – values that sit at the heart of the College’s Mission to educate and care for one another spiritually, intellectually, socially and emotionally.

Guest speaker Jack Davidson (Class of 2020) shared his insights as a young creative professional, speaking about his journey since Damascus and the role his College experiences played in shaping his confidence and drive. His words encouraged students to continue following their creative callings beyond the classroom.

The event was beautifully attended, with an atmosphere of celebration and pride among students, families and staff. The exhibition will remain open throughout the week for Damascus students and staff to visit and enjoy, providing an ongoing opportunity to reflect on the creativity and talent of the Class of 2025.

Principal Steven Mifsud extended his heartfelt congratulations to all staff and students involved in bringing Called to Inspire to life, commending their dedication, creativity and the collaborative spirit that continues to enrich the Damascus community.
