2014 End of the Year BBQ & Awards Ceremony
Mitch Grieb
On Thursday, June 5 the Department of Art and Art History hosted their annual BBQ and Awards Ceremony in the sculpture yard at the Fine Arts building. All majors and minors were invited to join this social gathering with faculty and staff in the department. The Juried Art Show and the Art History Research Paper Prize winners were announced. It was a successful and fun event and what a great turn out! Thanks to all of our majors and minors for coming, but mostly many thanks to all the faculty, staff and student workers for their help in preparing for this event.
Congratulations to the 2014 award winners!
