Florida School of the Arts students prepare for graduate gallery show
Florida School of the Arts students will display their work at an upcoming graduate show. An opening reception will be held on Thursday, June 4 at 7 p.m. to honor the work of five graduating students. The exhibits will be on display through June 26 in the FloArts main gallery, located on the Palatka Campus of St. Johns River Community College. Gallery hours are Monday – Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.
This year’s participants are Ryan Maynard, Rion Patch, Ben Enzfelder, Willie Deberry II and Sarah Brown.
According to FloArts gallery director and fine art instructor Michael Burban, the show is a culmination of two years of the students’ growth and development in the theory and practice of the arts and displays a broad range of creativity from traditional-based art to contemporary Postmodern. “The interdisciplinary art forms of drawing and painting, graphic design, photography, illustration, new media and 3-D mixed media/installation are all represented,” said Burban. “The exhibition gives the viewer insight into a very diverse, intelligent and creative group of young artists,” he added.
The visual arts program directs students to fully comprehend, use and manipulate the materials, techniques and procedures of the visual arts through drawing, printmaking, graphic design, illustration and photography.
