Senior visual arts shows — gallery-style exhibitions and receptions featuring the work of our graduating visual arts students — will run in the Pigott Family Arts Center from late April through mid-May. These shows are a collaborative effort, bringing together students working across photography, ceramics, sculpture, painting, and drawing.

More than just an exhibition, this is a chance for the entire community — students, parents and guardians, faculty, and staff — to engage with the work and learn more about the artists behind it.

A big part of what we ask our seniors to do is develop a body of work that is deeply personal and meaningful. These exhibits are the culmination of three to four years of dedication, growth, and development in the studio. Over time, students learn to take full ownership of their creative process, pushing their skills and ideas to new levels. Often, their work becomes a reflection of who they are, revealing personal stories, identities, and perspectives. Collectively, these shows highlight a remarkable range of creativity and diversity.

We hope you’ll join us for a reception, or visit the gallery throughout the week, and celebrate the achievements of these talented artists with us! All exhibitions will be held in the Pigott Family Arts Center Gallery, and studios will be open for visiting.
