For the 4th year Print Club is sending students working in Expanded Media to the Southern Graphics Council International Conference with the mission to gain professional development, experience mentorship opportunities, to learn about the broader field of careers in art, network with faculty from potential grad schools, and offer their portfolios for critique by artists from all over the world. This year the conference is in Portland, OR, making travel costs significantly steeper. We are asking for your support in the form of donated artworks for our annual SGCI OR BUST auction on Friday Feb 12th.


We love variety and so will our bidders! Please consider donating works of any medium to the auction. Work can be delivered to Billie Burns in the art office (or to the print club flat file) through 4pm on Feb 5th. The silent auction will open in the lobby of Harder Hall on Tuesday, Feb 8th, and the live auction begins on Friday, Feb 12th at 6pm. Please include your name, title, media and minimum bid with your art. If you would like to have your work picked up or need more info, you may reply to:
