The University Art Gallery at NMSU will host their annual Juried Student Show, beginning with an opening gala from 5-7 p.m. Thursday, March 13, at the UAG. This event is free and open to the public.
The exhibition is an opportunity for students to demonstrate their talent and skills while engaging with their community, and will feature artwork created by 34 students from NMSU’s Art Department — seven graduate students, and 27 undergraduates.

I look forward to sharing the talent and vision of our current students with visitors from around campus and the community,” said Stephanie Taylor, interim director of the NMSU University Art Gallery.
This year’s juror is NMSU alumna Jessica Pizana Roberts.
The exhibition will run through Saturday, April 5.
