Join us for the opening of the 2018 MFA Show!

This public presentation features more than 100 MFA candidates’ new and ambitious work. Students work for more than six months with three guest curators and 12 graduate curatorial fellows to envision the exhibition, an approach that allows for dialogue, process, and collaborative decision-making among the curatorial teams and artists.

Exhibition on view to the public April 28 – May 16 at the SAIC Sullivan Galleries. Free and open to the public Monday – Saturday, 11am – 6pm. For more information visit: saic.edu/shows
