The Alberta College of Art + Design’s 26th annual ACAD Graduating Student Show is an exciting chance to view the work of our 2012 Graduating Students and to meet our exciting graduating artists and designers. This unique exhibition promises to be a special glance into the work of graduating students from ACAD’s Ceramics, Fibre, Glass, Jewellery + Metals, Drawing, Media Arts + Digital Technologies, Painting, Photography, Print Media, Sculpture, and Visual Communication Design programs. We look forward to welcoming you as we celebrate the work of the emerging artists and designers of the class of 2012 at the 26th annual ACAD Graduating Student Show.
ACAD is at the core of Calgary’s creative community and each year our graduates go on to transform their fields of endeavor through their creative process, becoming important voices in the worlds of art and design in Calgary and beyond. We are proud to celebrate the remarkable work of this year’s graduating class here, at the 2012 ACAD Grad Show. This year, ACAD’s Illingworth Kerr Gallery is proud to present work by nearly 200 graduating students, including eleven recipients of ACAD’s prestigious Board of Governor Awards. We have planned a unique and extensive exhibition staged throughout our College – prepare to be surprised, awed and inspired by these talented and energetic creators. We hope you enjoy the show!
