The annual Master of Fine Arts (MFA) Thesis Exhibition marks the culmination of a three-year degree program in the visual arts that fosters individual research and creative studio practice. Students in the program focus on a particular area of study and complete a mature body of work in their chosen field. Artwork is situated within the discourse of contemporary art practice.
This year’s MFA Thesis Exhibition 2026 features the work of Preston Harris (painting), Miles Buchan (drawing), Katie Simmons (drawing), Joclyn Goss (metalsmithing), Mia Kinshasa (sculpture), Delaney Sandlin (printmaking).
