APSU Art + Design students taking work online for senior exhibits <\/h3>\n

The student art gallery, like most of the Austin Peay State University campus, is empty. Usually, at this point in the semester, graduating Art + Design students use the space to host public exhibitions of their work, but this spring has been a bit unusual. In early March, the spread of COVID-19 Coronavirus caused all APSU classes to move fully online, effectively canceling the art exhibits for 10 APSU seniors enrolled in the department’s Studio Art Capstone Thesis class. <\/p>\n

But the persistent young artists aren\u2019t letting a global pandemic stop their artistic careers. Beginning this Friday and continuing for the next three weeks, the students will host virtual exhibits every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. <\/p>\n

All shows will be announced on the APSU Art + Design Instagram<\/a> and Facebook<\/a> pages. Each artist has picked a slightly different strategy – a website, virtual world, video collection, Minecraft site, digital flipbook – so each announcement will take the viewer to a new web address. <\/p>\n
