Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts of the University of New Haven hosts an opening reception from 5 to 8 p.m. this evening in the Chauncey Stillman Gallery for its 2019 Summer Senior Studio Exhibition. All are welcome.
The seniors whose work is featured in the exhibition have completed accelerated studies for a Bachelor of Fine Arts or a Post-Baccalaureate degree and will graduate in August 2019. This will be the final exhibition of student portfolios submitted for degrees before the Lyme Academy ceases to be a degree-granting college subsequent to the University of New Haven’s withdrawal.
The Senior Studio experience at the College allows students to refine their vision and develop a skill set in order to create a body of work that exemplifies their individual interests, talents, and artistic sensibilities.
The 2019 Senior Studio Exhibition reflects the culmination of this project. Students will be present at the opening reception and available to discuss their work.
The exhibition will be on view in the gallery through Aug. 8. Admission is free Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The sponsor of the exhibition is Saybrook Point Inn/Fresh Salt.
Lyme Academy of Fine Arts is located at 84 Lyme St. in Old Lyme.
