PORTFOLIO DAY 2024
Hosted by Parker Arts in partnership with the Parker Artists Guild, Portfolio Day is a professional development opportunity for high school art students interested in continuing their educational and professional careers in visual arts.
At Portfolio Day, participating local area high school students will have their portfolios reviewed by university art professors, working artists and peers. Students will receive personalized constructive critiques on their portfolio presentations, including how to lead with a bang!, the importance of digital photography and taking effective photos of your work, how to write an effective artist statement, how to get into art shows, and more! College recruiters will also be onsite for students to discover what art programs across the state have to offer.
Prior to attending, participants will receive a Portfolio Day prep video including tips and guidelines to help prepare their portfolios and artist statements.
Monetary awards will be awarded by the Parker Artists Guild. Scholarships will be awarded by participating colleges and universities.
Students will exhibit their artwork in the Bright Futures Student Exhibit at the PACE Center Art Gallery from February 20 – March 28, 2024. Reception will be held March 28, 5:00 – 6:00 p.m.
