Fine Arts student Raechael Inglis has had her work selected for the Best of SUNY exhibition at the New York State Museum. Inglis’ work was selected from the Spring 2013 SUNY Art Exhibition, which also includes works by Fine Arts students Anneliese Holmes, Maxwell Goodknight, Lillian Ela and Benjamin Roy.
The work will be on exhibit at SUNY System Administration until late May when it will be sent to the museum for exhibition from the second week of June until September 18. After the exhibit is installed at the museum, it will be juried and the winners from the Fall 2012 and Spring 2013 Best of Shows will be chosen. There will be a reception on Tuesday, June 18, at the New York State Museum where the winners of the Fall and Spring Best of Shows will be announced. There will be three Best of Show winners and four Honorable Mentions.
The Fine Arts program’s class of 2013 has had great success in securing scholarships to their transfer institutions, thus far. Five students have been accepted for transfer to the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago, with scholarships ranging up to $23,000 annually.
In addition, Fine Arts student Anneliese Holmes has been accepted for transfer to The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art in New York City. Founded by inventor, industrialist and philanthropist Peter Cooper in 1859, Cooper Union offers education in art, architecture and engineering, as well as courses in the humanities and social sciences. Cooper is one of the most selective colleges in the United States with an acceptance rate of only 7.7 percent. All accepted students are granted a full scholarship and attend the college at no cost.
The faculty and staff of the Department of Fine Arts, Theatre Arts and Broadcast Communications would like to extend congratulations its students on their noteworthy accomplishments.
