The Galleries at CSU Host Annual Student Art Shows

Annual juried student art shows are an important standard for academic art galleries. While we plan for a new gallery location on campus, the Galleries at Cleveland State University is hosting student shows within our community by partnering with private, off-campus galleries. This year’s 53rd Annual Student Art Show and Haddad Merit Scholar Exhibitions will be held at the Bostwick Design Art Initiative Gallery at 2729 Prospect Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio.

The Student Art Show features the work of CSU students. All students are eligible to submit to this juried show. Items on display include painting, drawing, printmaking, photography, graphic design, video, animation, and sculpture and ceramics. Many of the works are for sale. Judges again have historically large cash prizes to award this year thanks to generous donors.

The Haddad Merit Scholar Exhibitions features work by recipients of the CSU Art Department Haddad Merit Scholarships. This year’s scholars are Erin McHugh, Emilie Bonsignore, Paris Snyder, Oriana Mendez, and Lauren Heier. These talented merit scholars are fulfilling a scholarship requirement by presenting these five exhibitions.

An opening reception and award ceremony will be held at the Bostwick Gallery on Thursday, April 17. The event and the exhibitions are free and open to the public weekdays from noon to 4 pm during the run of the show, April 15 to May 16. Metered street parking is available.
