Maine College of Art & Design recognizes winners from this year’s BFA Exhibition

We are thrilled to share the winners from this year's BFA Exhibition who were recognized in a private Awards Ceremony on Thursday, October 31.

Congratulations to all of the participating students on an incredible show!

Across four floors of the Porteous building, nearly 100 students exhibited art and design works featured in this year's BFA Exhibition.

The annual exhibition is an important opportunity for all BFA students to join their colleagues across majors, minors, and Foundation in sharing their work. This year’s exhibition spans four floors (Floors 1-3 along with the Underground) and will remain on view through November 9.
