2006 SAIC Undergraduate Exhibition: Apr. 2-14

This is usually a quiet interesting exhibit, as you can see a variety of work by a talented group of artists. Given, not all will become artists in their professional career, nonetheless, the work on display shows great skills, and creativity that goes beyond of what I have experienced in my college years. Simply stated, see what the current cool kids are up to, it will be fun.


More than 280 students completing undergraduate degrees exhibit innovative work in a range of media, including ceramics; fashion design; fiber arts; film; video, and new media; painting and drawing; performance; photography; printmedia; sculpture; and sound.
