Wayne State University's Graduate Students have a show on campus from 5-8 pm 


This exhibition features works by active graduate students working towards their Master of Fine Arts and Master of Arts degrees in the following concentrations: Ceramics, Drawing, Fibers, Graphic Design, Interior Design, Industrial Design, Metal Arts, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, and Sculpture. 

This is an opportunity for MFA and MA students to present their work within a professional gallery context, and to a wide audience that includes their fellow students. The diversity in media is accompanied by a variety of approaches.

Come and see why the James Pearson Duffy Department of Art and Art History at Wayne State University is the choice for many of the region’s most talented art students pursuing a graduate degree. 

The opening reception is on Friday, January 14, from 5:00 to 8:00 PM. It's free and open to the general public. The Art Department Gallery is located in the Art Building on the campus of Wayne State University, near the intersection of Cass Avenue and Kirby Street. Metered street parking is available, and is free after 6:00 PM.
