Celebrating the creativity of our community’s emerging artists, this juried exhibition features work by SVAD graduate and undergraduate students.
Through a diverse range of techniques and materials, including painting, drawing, sculpture and mixed media, the selected works offer personal explorations of identity. These works reflect the memories, experiences, relationships, communities and values that create one’s sense of self.
