Students had the opportunity to have their pieces judged by professors if they wanted a chance to participate in the art show. Students will find out today whether or not their pieces were selected for exhibition in the art show.
The Amarillo Museum of Art has been hosting this show for 38 years. Alex Gregory, Amarillo Museum of Art curator of collections, said the founders of the Museum had a strong tie to the students and the Panhandle and believed that working with them was part of their mission.
“It was part of the idea of the founders to display art from students,” Gregory said.
The Museum will host a Gallery Talk on the opening day of the exhibit at 6:30 p.m. Students can receive a free membership to the museum by showing their WT or AC ID card.
The Museum is open Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
