Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College is hosting a Student Art Show to feature the diverse range of creative talent on campus.

The exhibition, organized by Dr. Chris Beals, associate professor of biology, features a collection of original 2D and 3D art, including pencil and ink drawings, photorealism, paintings, sculptures and photography.

The Student Art Show provides a platform for students from various majors to display their original works, highlighting the diverse creative talents within the ABAC community. A committee comprised of ABAC faculty and staff will review the submissions and select one piece as "Best in Show," which will be announced at a later date.
Among the students whose works are currently on display are: Elliot Amos, Stella Humphlett, Cass Uchida, Madison Crosby, Jermaine Robinson, Andrew Jimenez, Brooklyn Cersey, Savannah Merritt, Izzy Sauls, Brooklynn Sullivan, Miguel Escobar, Hannah Jones, Turner Conger, Lilly Bailey, Jeffrey Holland and Bethany Rentz.

“Dr. Beals serves as a great example to students in this way,” Dr Jennifer Huang, head of the Fine Arts Department, said. “In addition to teaching both lower and upper division courses in ABAC’s Department of Science and Math, he also serves as an art faculty member in ABAC Arts Academy.”

The ABAC Arts Academy provides drawing, painting and music lessons to students of all ages through both group and private sessions. Those interested in exploring their artistic talents can find more information on the ABAC Arts Academy website or by contacting Huang.

The Student Art Show is currently open to the public until April 30. The exhibition can be viewed from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, at Edwards Hall, ABAC's Fine Arts Building, located on the front circle of the campus.
