Join University Galleries staff and exhibition curators for a reception celebrating the opening EMERGENCE. The reception will be preceded by a free, all-ages artmaking workshop. Refreshments will be provided.

University Galleries’ Teen Art Group, composed of students from Bloomington High School, developed the concept, theme, and layout of EMERGENCE. As the title suggests, this exhibition focuses on the process of “emerging” into the stage of adulthood. The organizers determined that all works should represent the journey out of adolescence and whatever the passing of this threshold means to the artist. They invited students from regional high schools to submit works for the exhibition. Participating artists are students at Bloomington High School, Bloomington; Fieldcrest High School, Minonk; Normal Community High School, Normal; and Washington Community High School, Washington.
