The College of Southern Nevada Fine Arts Gallery will present our annual Juried Student Exhibition beginning Friday, May 16, 2025, through Saturday, July 5, 2025. A reception with refreshments, awards ceremony, gallery talk, and Salon de Refusés will take place on Friday, May 16, from 6 – 8 p.m. This exhibition will feature student artwork made in connection with CSN Fine Arts Department, Art, and Art History Program courses with media including drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, metals, ceramics, jewelry, and design.
This year’s exhibition will feature guest judge, Ms. Megan Heeres. Heeres currently serves as the Visual and Public Art Supervisor for the City of Henderson. She graduated from the Cranbrook Academy of Art with a Master of Fine Arts degree in 2009 and from the Residential College at the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2002. Heeres’s art practice and professional endeavors have connected into a cooperative way of working with the community both inside and outside of the studio. These collaborations engage with place, people, art, and plants. Heeres has been an artist-in-residence at the Hambidge Center for Creative Arts and Sciences, the Michele Schara Residency, the Ragdale Foundation, the Santa Fe Art Institute, and the Women’s International Study Center. She is represented by Materia Gallery in Detroit, Michigan, and has works in many private collections.
The 2025 Juried Student Exhibition will feature awards with anticipated prize values totaling $1,500 or more courtesy of Blick Art Materials and Kendall Hunt Publishing Company. A Salon de Refusés will take place in conjunction with this exhibit in the CSN Horn Theatre Lobby on first floor of the CSN North Las Vegas campus, Main Building, located in the “H” Wing.
CSN’s Art Galleries would like to thank its guest judge, Ms. Megan Heeres, and its outstanding community partners, Blick Art Materials and Kendall Hunt Publishing Company for their generous support of this exhibition and our students.
