The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at Portland State University is pleased to present the Arlene Schnitzer Visual Arts Prize exhibition. A public reception will be held on Wednesday, March 6, from 5 to 7 p.m.
The School of Art + Design and the College of the Arts celebrate the eleventh year of the Arlene Schnitzer Visual Arts Prize at Portland State University. A jury composed of PSU Art + Design faculty and representative professionals from the art and design community reviewed 33 applications from art and design students, both undergraduate and graduate, to be awarded first, second, and third-place prizes. The 2023 award winners include: Ashley Yang-Thompson (MFA candidate in Studio Practice), Ash Kukuzke (BFA candidate in Graphic Design), and Mohabbat Khatibnia-Mansouri (BFA in Art Practice, ‘23).
PSU School of Art + Design is extraordinarily grateful to the Harold and Arlene Schnitzer CARE Foundation for their support in creating the Arlene Schnitzer Visual Arts Prize. It was established by Arlene Schnitzer in 2013 to recognize student achievement in the School of Art + Design and to raise awareness of the quality of art education at PSU.
