2026 Student Competitive

Any student currently enrolled in a studio art course in the School of Art + Design can submit up to four artworks for this juried competitive exhibition. The juror is independent from the UA Little Rock and the School of Art and Design. This year's juror is David Lusk. From all the submissions, the juror will select what becomes the Student Competitive Exhibition. Students must be currently enrolled in as studio course. All submitted artworks will have been created since last year's student competitive - no repeating submissions. We encourage our students to attend workshops at the Penland School of Craft, Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts, Peters Valley School of Craft and others, so we also encourage students to submit artworks made during their stay at these craft schools.
