First/ 50 Alumni Exhibition

April 28 – May 12, 2017

Opening Reception: Saturday, April 29, 2:00 – 6:00 PM

 

  

Sheridan’s Craft and Design program turns 50 this year, and throughout 2017 the faculty is organizing a series of events in celebration of both its proud history and the exciting future of the recently launched 4 year Honours Bachelor degree that will graduate its inaugural class in 2018. A series of alumni exhibitions and an accompanying book project aim to take stock of the long standing and continuing impact of the many phases of this program on the scene of Canadian Craft and Design. Each Studio Head has selected two established alumni to help kick off our 50th year celebration, in turn, these alumni were invited to submit work, but also to select 3 more recent or emerging alumni to submit work to the exhibition. 
 
We have other upcoming exhibitions planned for the fall of 2017 so please stay tuned for more announcements and exciting calls for entry! Visit our blog to stay up to date.

Handful is an exhibition presenting an engaging selection of new works by students in the first 3 years of the Bachelor of Craft and Design program at Sheridan.
