The exhibition featured works across media and includes painting, sculpture, animation, printmaking, ceramics, photography, and drawing. All students in the School of Visual Art and Design were invited to submit works in any media. This year’s exhibition was juried by Karen L. Watson, who has been the Executive Director of the Sumter County Gallery of Art since 2005. Prizes were awarded Best in Show; 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place Undergraduate Awards, and 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place Graduate Awards.
