The Student Summer Showcase, S³, returns for its second year as The Umbrella’s annual celebration of the work our student community is creating in our classrooms. Come appreciate the wonders Umbrella student artists create! Admission is free, and the galleries are open to all, as is the opening reception (RSVP). Downstairs, the Allie Kussin Gallery will feature 2D works, including painting and drawing. The glass cases at the front of the building will feature a selection of 3D works from our ceramics and glass working classes. Upstairs, youth and teen work will be exhibited in the Wedge gallery. Susan Swinand, an artist with over 25 years of teaching experience (The Worcester Art Museum, Clark University, Wellesley College Greenhouses), will jury the exhibition and select one Grand Prize winner and a group of Honorable Mentions to receive scholarship funds to be applied to their next arts course at The Umbrella.
