The Artist’s Portfolio Exhibition: Through Our Eyes 

Show Dates: November 13 - December 4

Closing Reception: Closing Reception: December 4, 12 - 1 p.m.  (there is no artist talk event for this show) 

Format: Hybrid

Students in the Artist’s Portfolio exhibition represent the capstone class in visual arts (Art 180) and the Helen S. Smith Gallery is exceptionally proud to present their individual work. Art students at Green River College work through the visual arts program studying drawing, painting, ceramics, photography and design.  Serious art students in the program traditionally take Art 180 in the fall to learn how to package and present their work professionally as a cumulative body. Through their studies they have created a professional portfolio of visual work ripe for applications to university art programs, entry level employment, internships and exhibition opportunities. Many of these upper-level students obtain their Associates of Fine Arts degree upon graduation in addition to their AA degree. The Artists’ Portfolio Class leads students through the process of polishing a body of artwork. Through discussions, critiques and hard work, they curate their own work into individual exhibitions at the end of their studies for the public to enjoy.
