Thesis Exhibitions

Each year, candidates of the Bachelor of Fine Art (BFA) and Master of Fine Art (MFA) degrees showcase their work in a series of culminating thesis exhibitions. We will celebrate Spring 2023 BFA graduates and Spring 2023 MFA graduates in person at various campus locations with a virtual tour and catalog available for viewing online.

Online Catalogs

We put thesis catalogs online as soon as we can to accommodate for viewing in the comfort of your own space.
