Opening Reception: Thursday, April 14, 5-7 p.m., remarks at 6 p.m. in the gallery

The First Year Program in Art and 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 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!

This is also OFFICIALLY the last exhibition to go up in the current gallery space we have resided in since 1972. Join us for pop-up exhibitions and events in Fall 2022 and check out our new space coming to the Student Union in Spring 2023!
