Michigan Tech Students

The students of Mary Ann Beckwith and Susanne Kilpela as well as others will display the artwork they've produced in Visual & Performing Arts classes this year in the annual Student Show.

The reception on Monday, April 18, will feature purchase prize announcements for the first time. The exhibit runs for five days in the lobby and mezzanine areas of the Rozsa Center.

"Lots of great artwork!" says Susanne Kilpela, who teaches ceramics, 3-D design, sculpture and drawing. A wide variety of student work is on view, at least one piece from each student, in a wide variety of media and styles. Michigan Tech offers a minor in visual arts, although not a major, so students from across campus bring many different perspectives and motivations to their work in Kilpela's and Beckwith's classes. "Although many students come to Michigan Tech with art skills, many others discover their abilities through these classes," Kilpela says. "It's great to watch that happen." The student show is open to the public during Rozsa business hours.
