Student Annual Exhibition Opening Reception
Wednesday, April 10 , 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm CDT
Join University Galleries to celebrate the opening of the 2024 Student Annual, a juried exhibition featuring work by Illinois State University students. Refreshments will be provided.
Since 1974, the Student Annual has showcased new artwork produced by students at Illinois State University. This exhibition has offered many students the first opportunity to have their work reviewed by professionals outside the University. Each year, two external arts professionals determine which works are selected for the exhibition and which works receive awards.
The Wonsook Kim School of Art is pleased to present the 2024 Marshall Dulaney Pitcher Award to MFA student Alan Atkins. This award honors outstanding students in the visual arts who demonstrate exceptional artistic talent, dedicated studio practice, and academic excellence. 2024 marks the 54th anniversary of this prestigious award, which was established by the Pitcher family in memory of painting student Marshall Pitcher. University Galleries has traditionally dedicated exhibition space within the Student Annual to winners of the Marshall Dulaney Pitcher Award, and Atkins is creating a new installation of his recent drawings, collages, videos, and clothing.
