Anxious about the Sophomore Portfolio Review? Want to connect with your classmates and make your work the best it can be? The PSUGD Mentorship program is coming soon to help!

Sign ups for both mentors and mentees will kick off early in Winter term 2019. Watch for posters throughout the Art Building and Annex beginning in January. Whether you’re prepping for review or already through it, it’s a great chance to grow your work and community at once.

Looking to get an early start on your SPR prep over the break? Check out the Sophomore Portfolio Review page at psu.gd/sophomore-portfolio-review for the basics. There, we have a great review guide that was used last year and it’s a great place to start to review the Review. It’s filled with tips, a calendar, the rubric and other helpful tools to guide you through this process while you are waiting for the 2019 guide to arrive!

Hey all! Show & Tell will be at 5:00pm this week, instead of our usual noon slot.
Come and meet Kamp Grizzly Art Director Rob Lewis as he shares one of his loves: Collage!

Rob will kick off the event talking about collage techniques and then we will all dive in and start working on our own collages that will then be complied into a collaborative PSUGD Zine. Supplies will be provided, but feel free to bring your own favorite materials as well!

Rob Lewis is an Art Director at Portland based creative agency and studio Kamp Grizzly. He hates meetings, likes buying records just to look at the covers and can always tell when someone has moved something on his desk. Always.

Let’s see you all at 5:00pm this Thursday in room 320!
