The Alumni + Friends Group offers opportunities to stay connected through community-building and networking activities. The goal is also to give back through volunteer opportunities. Here are some ways alumni can connect and engage: 

Join the Alumni LinkedIn Group

The Alumni & Friends of the UW School of Art + Art History + Design LinkedIn Group is a dynamic online community designed to foster meaningful connections, professional growth, and creative exchange among graduates. Join to share updates, promote achievements, share stories, and engage in discussions with fellow art, art history, and design friends. Whether you're looking to expand your network, explore career opportunities, or stay engaged with the school and fellow alumni, this group is your go-to hub. 

Attend Alumni Events

Designed to help foster connections between alumni and students, Alumni and Friends events will include exhibitions, lectures, and workshops to get you back into the Art building. These events will also feature exclusive Alumni and Friends Group swag to show your support for the School! More information coming soon. 

Share your Experience

Share your experiences and insights with current students, providing valuable learning opportunities and highlighting career pathways following a degree in art, art history and design. More information on panel opportunities coming soon. 

Donate Materials

Cleaning out your studio or library? Consider donating your goods to the Free Materials Library, which provides current art, art history and design students with supplies and tools to support their learning.

The Alumni and Friends Group will highlight alumni through our school newsletter, alumni webpage, LinkedIn group, and college website to inspire and motivate others.
