WVC Student Artists Exhibition at Pybus
February 2—27, 2024
First Friday Artists’ Reception, Friday, February 2, 5:00—7:00
The WVC Art Department is honored to take over Pybus Art Alley for February to share works by some of the talented students taking our art classes. These pieces represent a glimpse into the range of media being explored in the Music and Art Center, and the breadth of student types and interests studying with us. Here, they are all growing and learning disciplines and skills that can help them to make compelling artistic expressions of their ideas and perspectives.
The MAC provides tremendous facilities, practicing professional teaching artists, and a nurturing atmosphere for development of skills and creativity. We offer instruction in a full complement of media, including drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, ceramics, design, illustration, digital design, graphic design, and art history.
Our studios are dynamic places open to a wide variety of student interests, from those simply looking to gain Humanities credits toward their associate degrees in another field, to those planning to go on to an advanced art degree or career, to local fine artists looking to further develop their already substantial practices. It is not uncommon to find 18-year-old Running Start students working alongside senior citizens from Continuing Education, all growing in their own ways, and benefitting from one another’s perspectives and influences.
Here are a few highlights from among the current WVC student-artists whose work will be on display at Pybus Art Alley:
