Celebrating the creativity of our community’s emerging artists, this juried exhibition features work by graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Central Florida School of Visual Arts and Design (SVAD).
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.
The Albin Polasek Museum and Sculpture Gardens is honored to partner with UCF SVAD to present this exhibition, continuing the legacy of founder Albin Polasek, whose dedication to arts education influenced generations of artists. In that spirit, the museum remains committed to supporting emerging talent by providing a platform for new voices and creative expression.
