The Dorrance H. Hamilton Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of the Best of Salve Student Show 2024, also known as BOSS Show 2024.

Each September the Department of Art and Art History presents its annual survey of outstanding student artwork drawn from the full spectrum of visual art courses taught on campus. This juried exhibition showcases creative achievement at all studio levels, from introductory to advanced, in a wide variety of media. This year’s show features a range of artwork from both art majors and non-art majors in the areas of photography, painting, drawing, illustration, ceramics, graphic design, sculpture, and interactive media.

An awards ceremony for BOSS Show 2024 is scheduled during the gallery reception on Thursday, September 12. This year’s juror is the ceramic artist Jon Baylor from Salt Pond Pottery and the Jamestown Art Center. Immediately following the awards in the Gallery, the Department of Art and Art History invites all students majoring or minoring in Studio Art and Art History to attend a kickoff and orientation event next door in DiStefano Hall. BOSS Show 2024 runs through Sunday, September 29.
