Join the College of Arts and Sciences and the Henry Art Gallery to celebrate the annual UW School of Art graduate exhibition in the North Galleries.

Throughout their program, MFA students have worked with advisers and other artists to develop advanced techniques, expand concepts, discuss critical issues and emerge with a vision and direction for their work. Exhibition pieces were selected by students and their thesis committees, with curatorial assistance from Jim Rittimann, Henry Art Gallery head preparatory and exhibition designer.

By registering through the UW Alumni Association, you can begin exploring the exhibit 45 minutes before the general public. Sign up today.

Light hors d’oeuvres and drinks will be provided in the Henry Café.
