The Danforth Gallery, located in Jewett Hall on the University of Maine at Augusta, is displaying juried artwork of UMA art students through April 22.

A reception and awards ceremony will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday. The reception and exhibit are free and open to the public.

The honorary jurors for the exhibit are Jesse Potts, a multidisciplinary artist and assistant professor of art at the University of Maine at Farmington; and Susan Smith, associate faculty member in the Intermedia MFA program of the University of Maine, Orono.

The works represent a broad range of media and topics, including photography, printmaking, painting, drawing, sculpture, electronic arts, graphic novel and mixed media. The artwork, completed as part of coursework throughout the past year, showcases students at all stages of their academic development.

UMA’s art program offers a bachelor’s degree in studio art with concentrations in drawing, painting, sculpture, graphic design, printmaking, electronic arts and photography.

The gallery is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday.
