Lipscomb University will host its annual student art exhibition Tuesday, March 27 through Friday, April 6. An opening reception will be held Tuesday, March 27, at 5 p.m. in Studio 3901, the university’s new art exhibition space on campus.

Studio 3901 is located in the basement of Sewell Hall, 3901 Granny White Pike, and is open noon to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Admission is free.

Presented by the Student Art Association, the annual exhibition is curated this year by guest curator Rev. Ethan Acers, a performance artist from Los Angeles.

Any student at the university is eligible to submit works, so the show will range the gamut from drawing and painting to 3-D sculpture or multimedia, said Laura Lake Smith, chair of the Lipscomb art department.

“We want to provide an opportunity for our art students, as well as those with an interest in art, to express their artistic individuality. This is a show that is based on individuality,” she said. “With such a breadth of different media, it really is a celebration of the student’s work and their individual creative experience.”

Lipscomb’s student art exhibition is sponsored by the Student Government Association of Lipscomb University, The CRBL Foundation and Plaza Artist Materials and Framing, in Nashville.
