First Anual Roots Art Contest

This year was the first year for the Lory Student Center Arts Program and the CSU Bookstore to partner in supporting student art on campus.  21 student art pieces were submitted to a jury and 10 works were chosen to be shown in the building.  Visit the LSC Lower Level Hallway near the Transit Center.  The show will run for the month of November through the end of the term. 

This year's flagship theme was ROOTS.  Participants were asked to enter 2D and 3D work that illuminated or suggested their understanding or reflections on the theme.  Seven chosen works were 2D ranging from intaglio, lithography, drawing and digital mediums.  3 works were 3 dimensional including a bronze/glass work, pottery and 3d encostic. 

From these selections the judges chose 2 honorable mentions, 1 runner up and 1 best in show seen here:
