A total of 39 works are featured in the UT Department of Art’s Annual Juried Student Exhibition in the Center for the Visual Arts Gallery on the Toledo Museum of Art Campus.

A selection committee of 14 art faculty members reviewed 153 pieces submitted by undergraduate, graduate and post-baccalaureate students.

“The artworks selected for inclusion in the exhibition testify to the rich talents and diverse visions of UT students working across a broad range of media,” said Ben Pond, UT lecturer of art and gallery director.

Participating artists are Clinton Bales, Emily Beasecker, Alyssa Brown, Eric Broz, Lisa Franko, David Folck, Kasia Gacek, Yang Gao, Brenda Guerra, Sandra Haas, Timmy Hacker, Clyde Hartley, Jason Hinkle, Regina Jankowski-Greunke, Shena Kaye, Josh Klein, Julia LaBay, Kevin Leiter, Marko Milliken, Beverly Nathan, Jessica Ostrander, Taylor Dennis Pasquale, Ashley Paulsen, Rachelle Raymer Gilbert, Noah Rosczipica, Austin Tuttle, Nik Vechery, Caitlyn Witt and Jon Wittes.

There will be an artists’ reception and lecture presented by juror Amy Horst Friday, March 16, at 6 p.m. in the Center for the Visual Arts Gallery. She also will present awards to winning artists at the event.

Horst directs the Education and Community Arts Department at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center in Sheboygan, Wis., where she creates programs and curates exhibitions and projects that engage artists and the public in innovative ways.
