Gallery Program
The department has an active gallery exhibition program which normally features 6-8 major exhibitions each academic year. The department views the exhibition program as an essential educational tool and an opportunity for students to see a wide range of works by accomplished artists. Gallery offerings are sometimes accompanied by workshops and lectures by the visiting artist. The department makes a concerted effort to bring in shows that reflect a diversity of media as well as aesthetic concerns. Exhibitions normally run for approximately three weeks and sometimes include "openings" which students are encouraged to attend.

All Student Show
Every year the department schedules an exhibition of student works selected from studio classes during the academic year. Individual instructors will periodically hold back some exceptional pieces completed in their classes for the exhibition. Such works must be appropriately matted and/or framed as required by the instructor. Works included in the exhibition remain the property of the student and are returned.
