Collage of work from 2020 Made at MCAD exhibition

This annual juried exhibition features the best work submitted by current MCAD students pursuing degrees in design, fine arts, media arts, and entrepreneurial studies. Participants have a chance to win four $200 cash prizes for "Jurors’ Choice Award," as well as a "People's Choice Award" and an inaugural "President's Award."

Jurors: Pavel Pyś, Curator of Visual Art at the Walker Art Center, and Laura Qvale, VP Creative Director at KNOCK, inc.

We had a record 345 entries this year so the competition was stiff! This year's jurors selected 49 pieces from 43 different artists. There is a great variety across a wide range of media. Congratulations to those undergraduate and graduate students whose work was selected for the 2020 exhibition.
