We are so incredibly happy to announce the 2020 MFA Alumni Thesis exhibition! During the last year of their coursework, graduates were poised to exhibit their thesis research when we were hit with campus closure because of the pandemic. As a result, these students missed out on one of the most intrinsic components of their academic studies, presenting a fully developed body of work to the public in the form of an exhibition. Slowly as the world begins to open we are able to host these artists and reflect on the work they completed in those last months of their degree pursuits. Please join us in celebrating our graduates in the 2020 MFA Alumni Exhibition!
Check out some excellent work from the Illustration + Design Capstone with Simon Hinchliffe this spring! You can see the work at bddy.me/3hHPfSq
