Dept. Exhibition Drop-off

Department — KVH @ 3:56 pm

EDIT: The show was up, and is now down.
Please retrieve your prints and books from the Litho Room.
Thanks!


I can’t make this any easier for you. Due Friday!



Welcome back (to the insanity!!!)

Department, Events, Exhibitions — KVH @ 6:56 pm

Welcome back all — I hope your Spring Break was restful.

TWO IMPORTANT THINGS:

If you are on our Philly Bus list for this Friday (the 26th), you need to attend a MANDATORY (mini) MEETING this Wednesday at 3 PM. It’ll be quick we promise!

For those of you who did not make the Philly Bus list, but are still going on your own, please feel free to attend as well – we will have copies of our itinerary and a map to hand out, with important places to visit. (*** UPDATE >> See below!)

Who knows, perhaps you’ll even find a place on the bus if someone else drops – currently there is NO WAIT LIST.

Second: The Department Exhibition hangs Next Monday, March 29th (yeah, I know, we don’t have enough going on already).

This year, the Department Exhibition will be showcasing Book work by all, AND Prints by Juniors & Senior Majors and Concentrators. All work is due by this Friday (the 26th). I will have a drop-off location waiting by tomorrow (Tuesday) afternoon in the Litho Room, 1st Floor. You may submit to 3 pieces, (or a single body of work of more pieces). We want a LOT, so all Juniors and Senior Majors and Concentrators should submit.

Questions: kvanhorn@mica.edu

UPDATE: Download a copy of our Friday Itinerary here>>>>>>>
MICA PHILAGRAFIKA TRIP 2010 and the City map is here!



Other important Spring Break things:

Department — KVH @ 3:04 pm

People are actually backing out of the Philadelphia Bus-Trip list, so if you would like to be on the Wait List, please e-mail printmaking@mica.edu – We will waitlist you in the order you are received and notify you as early as we possibly can.  Please keep in mind that replies may be slow over Spring Break.


Important Item #2. There will be NO PRINTER HOURS over Spring Break. Sorry, you’ll have to either print on Friday, or wait until we return on the 22nd.


Thanks – and enjoy your break!

SGC + Philagrafika Bus Trip

Events, Exhibitions, cool — KVH @ 3:40 pm

FULL FULL FULL FULL FULL!
Sorry Charlie.


e-mail to join the waitlist.

Friday, March 26
approx. 8 AM – 10 PM.

The department is sponsoring a bus trip to visit many of the Philagrafika locations during Southern Graphics in Philadelphia this month.


Only a handful of seats are remaining on the bus. The sign-up sheet is located in the front entry-way display case.

If you sign up for the bus but fail to take the trip, your student accounts will be charged $35. We are not doing this to be cruel, but rather to force you to consider your scheduling and availability, and remind you that these seats are in demand. There will be a wait-list for the trip.

If the sign-up-sheet is full, please e-mail printmaking@mica.edu, and you will be wait-listed in the order you are received.

This will be an all day trip, on Friday, March 26th, and faculty from the department will rendezvous with you at various locations in the city.

Please consider your schedule carefully before you sign up.
This is the first friday after Spring Break.
