Earlier this year, several students and one of our faculty had work elected to be published in the 3x3 International Illustration Annual No.20 and the online gallery. Honorable Mentions will be listed in the 3x3 Annual and will be included in the online gallery as well. Congratulations everyone! We are so proud of you!

2023 Society of Illustrators Student Scholarship Winners
We recently found out that 4 of our Illustration students had work accepted into the 2023 Society of Illustrators Student Scholarship Exhibit and Catalog. One of those students, sophomore Simon Angel Pitts (‘25), had 2 pieces accepted. For his piece Boys Don’t Cry, he will receive the $1000 Lila and Ben Dryer Scholarship Award.
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!
