Welch School of Art & Design at Georgia State University is excited to announce its second year of the fall MFA Open Studio. This year, we are partnering with the Lamar Dodd School of Art at UGA for a two-part, two night, two city extravaganza. GSU will be hosting the kick off night in Atlanta, and UGA the finale in Athens, GA. Join us for both parties!
For this multi-floor, multi-disciplinary event, GSU MFA students in Painting, Drawing, Printmaking, Ceramics, Textiles, Graphic Design, Art Education, Sculpture, and Photography will invite the public in to see what they're working on. Come to mix and mingle and look!
In addition to the open studios, classrooms will be opened to exhibit work and house live, interactive demos in textiles, printmaking, art education, and ceramics. The photo department will also be constructing a photo booth again for the enjoyment of all in attendance.
Bring your wallet! MFA & BFA students will be exhibiting and selling finished works in the lower studios, from prints to ceramic pieces to paintings. Binders and Art Papers will also be in attendance with pop up booths and giveaways.
During the Open Studio, the Ernest G. Welch Galleries will be open after hours and exhibiting work by international artist, GHADA AMER. The exhibition, supported in part by CENCIA, showcases the work by the Egyptian painter alongside MFA pieces made in response to themes in her work.
Libations and snacks all night!
