Do you have creative skills or artistic work that you would like to share with your colleagues and friends at Syracuse University? Now is the time to present your inspiration through the On My Own Time exhibition April 30-May 16.
Any full- or part-time Syracuse University faculty, staff or instructor is eligible to submit up to three pieces of artwork in the categories of painting, ceramics, printmaking, drawing, sculpture, photography, collage/assemblage, fiber art, glasswork, computer art, metalwork and mixed media. Criteria for submission are listed on the registration form, which is due by April 23.

On My Own Time at Syracuse University opens with an in-house exhibition on April 30 in the Noble Room of Hendricks Chapel. It will be open weekdays from 8:30 a.m.– 5 p.m. through May 16.
A panel of professional artists assembled by CNY Arts will serve as judges. Artwork selected by the panel will be featured in a public exhibit at the Everson Museum this fall. Visitors to the on-campus exhibition will be able to vote for a “Best of Show” piece. The winner of this and other categories will be announced at a closing reception for the University community, artists and their family members, and volunteers on May 16 at 4:30 p.m. in the Noble Room.
Volunteers Needed
If you want to help with the show, volunteers are needed to check in art on April 26, set up the show on April 27 and other duties on May 16.
