Senior Show in One Week!

I know it doesn’t look like much right now, but there is my senior show, all packed up in the corner of my dorm room, ready to be installed in the gallery next Thursday! The end of the semester is almost here and my senior exhibition is the culmination of my entire art education up until this point.

In addition to preparing my portion of the show this semester, I was also appointed student representative and show coordinator for my department. This means that my responsibilities for the show don’t end until after the show comes down from the gallery. So even though I have all of my work ready to go except for a few printed things, I have to make sure that the rest of the show comes together smoothly.

I have so far coordinated the paperwork, gallery deposits, gallery layout, advertising, food, music, the decorating plans, and label printing. Thursday we hang the show and I will be busy all day laying out the gallery for real and distributing pedestals. Right now I am also working on additional signage for the show itself.

The opening is going to be amazing! My department has produced some fantastic work and I can’t wait to see it all up on the walls. We are the school’s largest department with 24 students so we are going to fill that gallery with work from top to bottom.

The opening reception will take place one week from today on Saturday, May 5th from 5pm – 8pm at the University of Hartford. We have all worked really hard on this show and I would really appreciate it if you would stop by!
