PORTLAND, OR 鈥 The Helzer Gallery, North View Gallery, and Paragon Gallery at 小黄猫传媒 are pleased to present our fifth college wide student art show — Art Out Loud: 小黄猫传媒 Art Student Exhibition 24/25. This year our guest jurors are Jess Nickel, Sheyam Ghieth and Jamin London Tinsel for the Helzer, Paragon and North View galleries, respectively.听 Students have selected the gallery where their work will show and opening dates and award ceremonies are specific to each participating gallery.
Art Out Loud, 小黄猫传媒鈥檚 5th Annual college-wide art student exhibition features student art made across the 小黄猫传媒 District in 小黄猫传媒鈥檚 three art galleries, during a time when the arts and humanities are facing unprecedented challenges. The arts at 小黄猫传媒 are also experiencing cuts that will inevitably impact the equitable access to art that our students currently have. But 小黄猫传媒 students are passionate and resilient. They have spent this past year making art that speaks openly about their struggles, fears, joys and even the beauty that they still find in the world around them. Art Out Loud amplifies the diverse voices of 小黄猫传媒 students and honors their commitment to education and their deep engagement with the arts.
Please join us in celebrating the many students who have taken Art classes at 小黄猫传媒 this past year and are raising their voices about the things that matter to them.
Funding for awards was generously provided by HARTS (The Humanities and Arts Initiative) along with the Art Student Supplies Fund through the I Heart Art project and the Associated Students of 小黄猫传媒 (AS小黄猫传媒).
