To foster the intellectual and creative strengths of our students, the HUB Director’s Art Award rewards excellence by purchasing and displaying student artwork in the HUB Permanent Art Collection. Each spring quarter, members of a Husky Union Building (HUB) committee visit the undergraduate graduation exhibitions at the Jacob Lawrence Gallery and the MFA + MDes Thesis Exhibition at the Henry Art Gallery to select finalist(s). This year three graduating students were selected for the award.
Congratulations to this year’s HUB Director's Art award winners: Neylan McCormick (BA, 2023), Leah Matsumoto ( BA Honors, 2023) and Jai Sallay-Carrington (MFA, 2023).
“ We had a record number of students express interest in being considered for the award. There were so many incredible pieces to consider this year, which made our committee’s work both exciting and challenging.” — Adam Serafin, Associate Director for Communications & Development
The work is now displaying at the Husky Union Building (HUB). Visit HUB Artwork & Displays to learn more about each recipient's artwork. Congratulations to all three!
