The Fine Arts Center at Northern Kentucky University is hosting the Senior Exhibition from November 12-20, 2009. The exhibit will feature original art work of seven senior, BFA candidates, and is a requirement for all students majoring in the various visual art disciplines.

Although the exhibit is a method to showcase the university’s artistic talent, it also serves as a means for the seniors to be professionally critiqued by a committee of art faculty members. A second group of senior exhibitions will open in December. The exhibit is free and open to the public and is located in the Main Gallery, on the 3rd floor of the Fine Arts Center at Northern Kentucky University. The Gallery hours are Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
