2012 First & Second Year Student Reviews

As we have mentioned at all of our meetings First and Second Year Reviews will be coming up on Thursday and Friday of next week. Remember, all art and design majors must complete two reviews before graduation and they must take place your first two years in the program.

If you have any questions please email myself or Rhonda. Thanks!

Pre-Competition Workshop

Would you like an extra edge on the student competition coming up? You may not know this, but judges not only look at the quality of your piece but also at the craftsmanship and care put into the back of your frame.

 What you’ll learn:

  • How to properly hang art work for a show, such as what hanging device works best for a certain style or size of frame.
  • How to properly attach and assemble hanging devices.
  • Matting and how much room to give your piece within a frame.

…and many more answers to common questions.

When and where:

  • Monday, April 23rd
  • 6:00 pm
  • Art History Room, DM 141

Remember, you can find detailed information about the student competition on the blog at this link.

The workshop will be led by Shawna McDanel.
