Gallery:
The galleries offer two regular opportunities to alumni for consideration: a solo exhibition in the Carol Schlosberg Alumni Gallery or Founders Gallery and participation in occasional group exhibitions or juried alumni exhibitions.
SOLO EXHIBITIONS
To be considered for a solo exhibition in the Carol Schlosberg Alumni Gallery or Founders Gallery, you must be active in your local art community, have created a high-caliber body of work separate from the work you created at Montserrat, be willing to give a gallery talk, and have graduated five or more years ago. The Gallery reviews submissions on an ongoing basis; there is no submission deadline.
To submit your artwork for review, please send an email with a current artist resume, artist statement and a link to your website with images of current work to:
ALUMNI EXHIBITIONS
To be included in occasional juried alumni exhibitions, please submit your work to the “alumni call for work” when they come out and follow the instructions as outlined in the call.
Career Design Studio:
Montserrat’s Career Design Studio supports alumni’s continued growth as creative professionals after graduation and helps them robustly explore opportunities throughout their lives, from the recent graduate in search of their first job, to the seasoned artist seeking a career change.
After graduation, we invite alumni to continue to attend Career Design Studio programming, workshops, and networking events, and take advantage of lifelong free access to 1:1 career coaching.
Alumni also have 24/7 access to online resources:
- Art World Learning which features practical financial empowerment courses for creatives.
