Student Art Show Installation Complete!

The show installation was very successful today thanks to the help of Alex, Bakari, Darrin, Rosa, Rahatul, Leen, and Charles! This awesome bunch took on the challenge of hanging the 42 works submitted to the exhibition with excitement and a commitment to excellence (even though some tricky math was involved to get things just right).

Although the show looks complete, tags are currently missing which credit the artists of each work – these will be completed this weekend and added Monday morning for the official first day of the exhibition, October 24th.

Drawings from the Meet & Greet, Sept 7

The Meet & Greet was a lot of fun last week. In addition to learning about some of what’s in store this semester, those in attendance participated in a friendly art competition in which groups of 2-3 people visually responded to a subject prompt (like “dog”, “statue of liberty”, “spaceship with alien”). The winning groups received yummy prizes!

Here are a few images created throughout the afternoon:

We will hold officer voting, plan out or movie days for the semester, talk about the upcoming RISD visit (and hold sign-up for portfolio review), and we’ll come up with a plan for the fall student show!

See you there!
