This year’s Juried Student Exhibition at Plymouth State College is quickly approaching. Students from any academic department on campus who have taken art classes at PSC are eligible to submit their work for consideration for this popular annual event. The show is juried by two members of the art department staff and one student juror. According to Catherine Amidon, Director of Exhibitions for the college, “The Juried Student Show is an essential part of our inclusive annual programming of exhibitions and related events. Reaching out to the whole campus population of art students as participants rather than visitors allows an important part of the community to become engaged in meaningful ways”
Students interested in submitting work for this years show can do so on Monday February 24 and Tuesday, February 25 in D&M room 204 between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Works should be submitted ready to hang and should include any special installation instructions. Adjudication of the work will occur later in the week, and the show will open Wednesday, March 5 in the lobby of the Silver Cultural Arts Center. A reception will be held from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Refreshments will be served.
Many Plymouth State students look forward to the juried student show every year as wonderful venue for displaying their creative achievements. “The Juried Student show is a great chance for students to not only learn a great deal of information about the process behind showing their art work, but for students, faculty and the community to see the extraordinary work that is being done right here on campus,” said Morgan Fippenger, a senior majoring in art education who is also president of the Art & Art History Club. This year’s juried student show is being coordinated by junior, Tim Carrigan.
