A variety of University of Wyoming student artwork goes on show tonight at the newly renovated Honors House.
The art exhibit, titled “Professio Exhibeo,” is the first show to be hosted at the house, to which work wrapped on earlier in the semester. Members of the Student Art League, a Recognized Student Organization, will display their work there for three weeks, beginning today.
“It’s a great chance for the community to come out and see what the art students here at the university are doing,” UW art major and Student Art League member Travis Ivey said.
“We have a really great art program here and this exhibition is a good example of the quality of our students.”
Ivey’s contribution to the show is a large “en plein air” oil landscape painting titled “West Laramie Switch.” “En plein air” means the work was painted outdoors.
The exhibition includes works such as oil and watercolor paintings, sculptures, mixed media pieces and more by a variety of Student Art League members. Some of the artwork on display will be available for purchase.
The exhibition opens with a reception from 5 to 7 p.m. tonight at the Honors House.
“Everyone is excited to have the community come and check out what we do,” Ivey said.
