FALL RIVER — The annual juried Student Art and Design Exhibit will open at Bristol Community College's Grimshaw-Gudewicz Art Gallery on Thursday, April 25

Featuring selected works from all fine art and graphic design studio courses, the exhibit is on display April 25 to May 9. The opening reception will be held Thursday, April 25, from 6 to 8 p.m.

Beginning in 2005, the show’s juried format provides students the opportunity to engage in the professional practice of preparing works for entry into an exhibition. Students are encouraged to submit for consideration up to four works made between April 2018 and April 2019.

Each year about 200 works are submitted and the jurors have the exciting challenge to bring that number down to about 75 pieces. The resulting exhibition reflects the strength, breadth, and diversity of the programs.

The Grimshaw-Gudewicz Art Gallery is located on BCC's Fall River campus at 777 Elsbree St. Admission is free and open to the public. Gallery Hours: Monday - Friday: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Saturday: 1 to 4 p.m. For more information, call 774.357.2439 or visit http://www.bristolcc.edu/gallery/.
