20th ArtsWorcester College Show
Davis Art Gallery, Printers Building 44 Portland Street, 3th Floor, Worcester, MAThe Annual College Show is a juried exhibition open to all undergraduate college students studying or residing in Massachusetts, in any major. This year’s College Show was juried by Chloe Zaug, Associate Director of the MassArt Art Museum. The College Show recognizes the next generation of regional artists, drawing on the strengths of student artists in Worcester and beyond. From over 230 submissions, Zaug selected 71 works by 58 artists. Students from 10 Massachusetts institutions have work on display, showcasing a multitude of techniques and media, including filmmaking, printmaking, digital art, sculpture, and more. "The strength of submissions for the 20th ArtsWorcester College Show was inspiring, with careful and deep consideration of today's most pressing issues," says Zaug. "Working in a wide range of media, today's college students are richly navigating their creative practice through themes of identity and self, sense of place, and materiality." Awards, which come with cash prizes, will be announced at the opening reception on Friday, February 16, in the Davis Art Gallery, located on the third floor of the Printers Building. The reception is free and open to the public.
