We recently found out that 6 of our Illustration students had work accepted into the 2024 Society of Illustrators Student Scholarship Exhibit and Catalog. Two of those students, senior Erica Hoelting, ‘24 and senior Robin Miller, ‘24, each had two pieces accepted!
Every year since 1981 the Society has held the Student Scholarship Competition. Over three hundred works are chosen from more than 8,700 entries submitted by professors of college-level students nationwide. In a competition which can kick start a career, students bring their most sophisticated, well-crafted and original work to be tested. A jury of professional peers, including illustrators and art directors, selects the most outstanding works created throughout the year. Pieces are accepted based on the quality of technique, concept and skill of medium used (taken from societyofillustrators.org).
We are so proud of the students whose work was selected this year and proud of all of the students who submitted work. Congratulations to the winners!! Well done, everyone!
