Students in the course are required to prepare a body of work for solo exhibition and defend it orally and in writing, in order to graduate.
The public is invited to view the exhibition, being held in conjunction with the Presque Isle First Friday Art Walk, on Friday, Aug. 1, from 5-7 p.m. Light refreshments will be served. This event is free and open to the public.
