Santa Fe Community College will host a reception from 4 to 6 p.m. Thursday, May 15, for SFCC’s annual Student Art Exhibition in the Visual Arts Gallery in the Fine Arts Center, 6401 Richards Avenue. The reception is sponsored in part by SFCC Foundation. The opening reception is free and open to the public.
The exhibition will feature more than 150 works of art created by students in the School of Art and Design. The showcase will include a selection of artwork produced by students in the following classes and areas of study: jewelry, sculpture, glass, santeros, fiber arts, printmaking and book arts, painting/drawing, fine woodworking, ceramics, film, photography and media arts.
SFCC Director of Art on Campus Linda Cassel said, “The festive opening reception is a highlight of the academic year for our art, design and media arts students. We have hundreds of students in SFCC’s art classes, and this exhibition showcases a selection of the best artwork that highlights the range of artwork produced by SFCC’s students. The work is also a reflection of the dedication of our talented faculty who have guided the students to master the necessary skills to share their creative visions. The opening also offers an opportunity for people in the community to meet SFCC art students and faculty.”
Cash awards will be announced at the opening to recognize outstanding artwork in each of the art categories. The awards are sponsored in part by SFCC Foundation.
