Artist Exhibitions


Experience Beyond the Classroom

Each semester, the Fine Arts Program presents professionally curated exhibitions in the Palmetto Gallery at the Palmetto Center for the Arts, featuring the work of established and emerging artists from across the region and beyond. These exhibitions expose students to a wide range of contemporary artistic practices, materials, and perspectives while connecting classroom learning to the broader art world.

Artist Talks & Workshops

Many exhibitions include artist talks, providing students with the opportunity to hear firsthand about an artist's creative process, influences, and professional experience. Select exhibitions also feature hands-on workshops, allowing students to engage directly with practicing artists, explore new techniques, and gain valuable insight into careers in the visual arts.

    Unconnected with a Sense of Belonging

    Unconnected with a Sense of Belonging explores the tension between isolation and connection through paintings shaped by the artist’s experiences of family, community, and solitude. Flowers become a visual language for emotions that can be fragile, resilient, chaotic, confident, or disconnected. Created in the private space of the studio and shared publicly through the exhibition, the work reflects on how isolation and belonging can exist together.
