The exhibition will contain the final bodies of work for these three outstanding seniors. The artists will be giving brief discussions of their work as well answering questions from the audience.

The Senior Art Exhibition is the final requirement for graduating with a bachelor’s of Fine Arts at MacMurray College, and each senior has worked for the past year to develop the pieces that will be shown.
