The Bluffton University art department will present the 50th Juried Student Exhibition from April 3-28 in the Grace Albrecht Gallery in Sauder Visual Arts Center. The exhibition, which is free and open to the public, will showcase work created this academic year by students in university art classes or supervised independent studies.
Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 1-5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.
The Boehr Award for Best of Show, which carries a $150 cash prize, will be selected, as will four Awards of Distinction—each worth $100—and Senior Merit Awards, which are awarded, along with $50, to seniors who did not place in any other cash-award categories.
A best of category award will be designated in each category along with honorable mentions made at the juror’s discretion. Cash awards are sponsored by the family of Bluffton alumnus Richard Boehr ‘53.
Bluffton University students may enter up to three works in each of the following media: ceramics, glass, two-dimensional design, three-dimensional design, drawing, painting, photography, printmaking and sculpture. Up to five works may be submitted for computer generated artwork.
Works included in the show are selected by a guest juror, who also chooses award winners.
