Juried Alumni Exhibition “Hand & Heart”
Bob Owens Galley – Hoag Student Center
August 10 – September 17
Reception: September 17, 5:30 p.m. - 7 p.m.
Free & Open to All

The 2026 juried alum exhibition explores the way that the fine arts and crafts invite connection. They are meant to be seen, held, and lived with, bringing people together while prompting reflection and dialogue. The works created by artists and craftspeople function not only as objects of admiration, but as bridges between neighbors, friends, loved ones, and strangers. Objects shaped by the hand can resonate deeply, forging connections that are felt in the heart.

The juror for this exhibition is Kyle Anthony Clark who earned an undergraduate degree in art education from the University of North Georgia, where he studied from 2009 to 2013. He serves as an Assistant Professor in the School of Library and Information Studies at the University of Alabama.

The annual juried alum exhibition is open to all former visual arts students of the University of North Georgia, North Georgia College, and Gainesville State University.
