Students can organize exhibitions in the Project Space, BAG Gallery, the Weems Center, and in non-exhibition spaces throughout the school. Two week
time slots are given for exhibitions in all spaces. Click here to download the Artwork in Common Spaces Approval Form.
The Project Space, Weems Center, and BAG Gallery are community exhibition spaces. Maintenance of the area is
the responsibility of the reserving parties. Reservations for the Project Space, Weems Center, and BAG Gallery take place in
April for the following academic year. Faculty and graduate students are
given first priority in the reservation process; open slots will be made
available to all other students on a case by case basis at the beginning of the
fall semester each year.
Any major changes to the gallery (dark paint, large holes, pedestal
arrangements) must first be approved by the Exhibitions Office, then
repaired/restored/removed at the time of your de-installation.
