Recap:
Submissions for this year’s Juried Show will begin Monday, February 25 at 9AM and end on Wednesday, February 27 at noon. Our jurors, Stephen Towns (Fine Art) and Ellen Lupton (Graphic Design) will make their selections the afternoon of Wednesday, February 27. Students may submit up to 4 pieces in each category (graphic design and fine art) for a maximum of 8 submissions. The work must have been made in the last year and not have been submitted to the Juried Show last year. All FA/GD majors and all students currently enrolled in an ART class may submit.
Work does not have to be matted or framed, but presentation is considered. A nice frame and a mat can transform some work and make it more appealing to jurors and viewers. Some work is definitely better left unframed and it’s never a good idea to put something in a poorly cut or dirty mat or cheap frame because that always detracts from the work. If you’re unsure what to do, consult your professors.
