AFA Portfolio Exhibition Artist Reception

A collage of different student art projects.

The artwork in this exhibition represents the culmination of two years of skill development, research, and creative problem solving. Many of the student artists represented in this exhibition have completed the requirements for an Associate of Fine Arts degree, a two-year program of study and training in the visual arts.

Here at Shoreline, we have had the privilege of watching these students progress from their first realizations of their passion for art-making to developing an individual focus and personal vision. Please join us for food and music as we celebrate these diverse and innovative voices!
