On Friday, Oct. 24, the University of Nebraska–Lincoln Department of Art and Art History is hosting Open Studios. Graduate students in the Department of Art and Art History will open their working studios for the evening, from 5 to 8 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. The open house will include graduate studios in Richards Hall and Woods Art Building. Work will include painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking, photography and ceramics. In addition to graduate work, selected undergraduate pieces will be on display in Richards Hall. Visitors are invited to view ongoing, in-process work by emerging artists and encouraged to ask questions. “This is our opportunity to invite people in and to engage with the broader Lincoln community,” said Amanda Breitbach, a second-year graduate student in photography. “It is meant to be fun and casual, to encourage conversation.” Visitors will also have the chance to take home a piece of graduate artwork from a raffle drawing that will be held at 7:45 p.m. Raffle tickets will be sold that night for $1 (or six for $5), and all proceeds will go to the student-run Visual Artists in Practice. Winners need not be present to win. Visual Artists in Practice is a graduate student organization for MFA candidates in art and art history. It is designed to foster exchange and community among graduate students, the university and Lincoln community at large through student-led initiatives, as well as programs and events organized by graduate student leaders. Richards Hall is located at the corner of Stadium Dr and T St. on UNL’s city campus. Woods Art Building is located just southeast of Richards next to the Sheldon Museum of Art.
