Friday night saw the opening of this year's BFA Exhibition featuring the work of 13 Seniors in Illustration here at UConn. Out of a total 61 graduating students, our 13 Seniors took two prizes: Christopher Cater won one of the prestigious Dean's Purchase Awards, and Jennifer Young took home a Faculty Award. Congratulations!

The show runs from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm each day until (and including) Tuesday, April 30th, at ArtSpace Windham, in Willimantic, CT.

ALL of our Seniors worked very, very hard all semester long to create meaningful projects and Artists' Statements for this Exhibition, and they worked tirelessly to prepare, hang, and present the show. Many of our Illustration students took on leadership roles on the Exhibition's sub-committees, which is no easy task. Well done, folks! Your future awaits!
