“Each student has installed his or her own area and done the necessary signage,” Larry Feeney, gallery director, said. “This is considered to be part of their exit experience and is another means of the university judging their growth and development.

“When we lost our Eugenia Summer Gallery space, we were not sure what we would do for exhibitions. We are fortunate that the university created such a handsome space for our temporary gallery.”

The Eugenia Summer Gallery is located in the Fine Arts Building, which was damaged during the November 2002 tornado. The faculty and staff in the Division of Fine and Performing Arts has been temporarily moved to Poindexter and Shattuck halls until the building is repaired.

There are 14 students participating in the Senior Art Exhibit. They are Maria Tucci, art education major; John Wilkerson, drawing and painting major; Leila Haj Hassan, Cary Haycox, Sara McTaggart, Kevin Onyango and Hannah Rieves, all graphic design majors; and Brittany Breckenridge Sanderson, Erin Creekmore, Jennifer Medlin, Kirsti Priddy, Courtney Paige Rowan, Keely Schult and Anna Weems, all interior design majors.
