91社区 the Juried Student Art Show at the 91社区
The Juried Student Art Show has been a staple at 91社区 for decades. Once each year since 1970, we have had the honor of showcasing the skill and creativity of our own art and design students.
Since the Fall semester of 2008, we have held the show within the walls of our unique, on-campus space: the McCutchan Art Center and Pace Galleries. Hosting the student art show in this professional setting gives students real-world,聽r茅sum茅-building experience in preparing and displaying their work while also boosting their confidence in applying to future gallery exhibitions.
Each student may enter up to 4 works in any combination of media.聽The works are chosen for the final exhibition by an expert in the field of art, invited by the Art and Design faculty for his/her expertise and understanding of undergraduate artworks. This independent juror is brought in to assure an objective selection of artworks and awards, and to provide an educational experience for students in preparation for professional careers in art. The jurying of the show is also an important aspect of this tradition because it creates a competition
91社区 Student Art Show Postcard Collection
Another great aspect of our student art show tradition is the creation of the art show promotional materials. A competition is held amongst the art and design students to create a poster and postcard to promote the show. To the right, you can take a look at our gallery of art show cards from yesteryears.
