The First Year Program in Art & Design at UWM’s Peck School of the Arts prepares students to be creative, engaged, and ready to advance in their chosen areas of study. The first year is a time of artistic and personal development during which students choose their areas of concentration and begin to see themselves becoming practitioners in their field. The Union Art Gallery’s First Year Experience Exhibition is an opportunity for these students to showcase the work they have created during this process. Join us in celebrating the work of these talented artists!
