The Bannister Gallery is pleased to present its annual exhibition of work by graduating seniors in the Rhode Island College Art Department. Various studio concentrations represented include ceramics, metalsmithing, painting, printmaking, digital media, graphic design, photography and sculpture. Degrees earned through the Art Department include a B.S. in Art Education, a B.A. in Art History, a B.A. in Art Studio, and a B.F.A. in Art Studio, the latter of which requires students to develop a stylistically accomplished and conceptually focused body of work. The exhibition also celebrates Bin Glodek, this year's Graduating Senior Award winner in Studio Art, and Erin Lopes, the recipient of the Harriet Brisson Award in Ceramics.
