During your senior year, you will show off your creativity and hard work through a senior exhibition in one of the University’s five gallery spaces.

  • Kinlaw Library Art Gallery (Kinlaw Library)
  • Red Gallery (Second Floor, Z.T. Johnson Dining Hall)
  • Purple Gallery (Second Floor, Z.T. Johnson Dining Hall)
  • Blue Gallery (Second Floor, Z.T. Johnson Dining Hall)
  • McCreless Art Gallery (McCreless Fine Art Gallery)

What Happens during a Senior Exhibition

  • Plan your exhibit by creating a timeline of what needs to be done and when.
  • Create a body of work that is the culmination of your Asbury experience.
  • Curate your work figuring out how to best display it in the space provided.
  • Market your exhibition so that people can come and enjoy.
  • Host your opening reception and celebrate this important milestone with your friends and family.

A treasured keepsake will be the exhibition sign-in book where you can see the difference your art is making in the lives of those who encounter it.

exhibition experience

Your senior art exhibition at Asbury University will not only provide a space to celebrate all that you have accomplished over the last four years, but will give you the experience necessary as you move forward into the next phase of your career. Logistical planning, engaging marketing and personal reflection come together to curate a stellar exhibition, and you will find that the work from your Senior Exhibition will pave the way for success in future shows, graduate portfolios and even illustration careers!

Some of my favorite aspects of the Art & Design major were the ability to explore ideas and concepts of interest and the professors, who always were encouraging and had a wealth of knowledge in their disciplines. Right now, I am the studio manager at a ceramics studio where we employ and mentor high school students in the area. I train and work directly with our student employees on a daily basis to create our product line and a thriving work environment.
