Art on Campus
Showcasing work by VCFA alumnx, students, faculty, staff, and partners
The VCFA Exhibition Series presents non-residency exhibitions which feature the work of our community, including current students, alumnx, faculty, artist-mentors, and staff. The series is led by the college’s Exhibition Committee, though guest curators, jurors, and partner institutions are occasionally invited to participate in or co-organize shows. The exhibitions present a range of ideas and subject matter, reflective of the discourse and curriculum at VCFA. Exhibition Series shows and events are free and open to the public.

In addition to the Exhibition Series shows, there are ongoing exhibits of student and alumnx work in an ever-growing list of campus locations, including the Dewey Cafeteria, College Hall Executive Suite, and more.
Current Exhibition
Either I Woke Up, or Come Back to This Earth looks at how we mediate the past—through the potency of objects, digital and physical archives, and ever-reaching technologies—to contend with our present conditions.
Past Exhibitions
Since 2017, the VCFA Exhibition Series has mounted six shows in the College Hall and Alumnx Hall galleries. Learn more about the first five exhibitions and view select images here.
