March 16, 2026
YSU’s McDonough Museum of Art will once again host the “Annual Juried Student Art & Design Exhibition” beginning Friday, March 20, through Friday, April 3, as the exhibit celebrates its 89th year.
A yearly spring tradition featuring works by students enrolled in YSU’s Department of Art, the exhibit serves as an opportunity for students to gain the knowledge and experience of entering a show that is judged by an arts professional. Students are allowed to submit works in the categories of ceramics, photography, printmaking, painting, drawing and illustration, sculpture, mixed media, digital media or video, and graphic and interactive design.
Local businesses and individuals generously support this event and its talented artists by contributing cash awards and gift certificates.
An opening reception and awards presentation will be held March 20 from 5:00 to 7:00 PM at the McDonough. Entry to all events is free and open to the public. Parking is available in the Wick Avenue Deck (M30) for a $5 fee payable in cash only.
