Visiting Artists and Scholars

Each semester the Visiting Artists and Scholars Program hosts high-caliber local, national, and international artists, designers, curators and historians to present their work and offer workshops to Art students. These visits expand, inspire and enrich the learning experience.

All Art students are welcome to attend the visiting artists’ and scholars’ lectures and workshops. Intermediate and advanced students are also invited to host individual studio visits and critiques with the visiting artists/scholars. Lectures are held in the KVAC auditorium and are free and open to the public. 

Visitor highlights include Lenka Clayton, Eric Crosby, Robin Deacon, Tia-Simone Gardner, Michelle Grabner, Nina Katchadourian, Laurel Ptak, Alec Soth, Jered Sprecher, and Hamza Walker.
