Each spring, the Hallie Ford Museum of Art features the work of senior art studio majors at Willamette University. Characterized by a wide variety of styles and approaches, the exhibition includes work in a range of media, including sculpture, painting, installations and printmaking.
The exhibition, which represents the culmination of the student's four years at Willamette is paired with a small solo exhibition of recent work by one of the faculty members in the art department at Willamette University. The purpose of the exhibitions are to demonstrate the continuing connection and relationship between student and faculty research.
