Current Exhibition
Artists Among Us
Exhibition | June 30 - August 29, 2025
Reception | 2 p.m., August 22, 2025
The Kenneth P. McCutchan Art Center/Palmina F. and Stephen S. Pace Galleries is pleased to present Artists Among Us as its summer exhibition. The exhibition includes twenty-seven creative makers who work as administrators, faculty, and staff across USI, and for most of whom art making has very little to do with their day-to-day activities on campus.
A reception for the exhibition will be held on Friday, August 22 beginning at 2 p.m. This includes an awards ceremony being held in the gallery starting at 2 p.m. Participating artists and their friends and family are encouraged to attend.
