Annual Digital Student Slide Presentation

Faculty Submissions
All submissions for this presentation must come from faculty, not from individual students.  This presentation is not juried. Up to five images submitted will be included in the presentation, depending on the number of schools participating (SNAG may need to edit for time). Every effort will be made to give equal representation to each participating institution.

If your program has multiple faculty, please coordinate your selections with each other.  We will accept only one set of images from each school. If multiple submissions are made from one school, we will do our best to contact you and correct the error. The submission process for this digital presentation is completely separate from the Juried Student Exhibition, which students enter on their own.

Intro Image
Please submit an image to represent your program for your school’s title slide. This can be either a humorous or serious image of faculty and/or students, an image of your facilities, or of your institution. Please submit this image at the same time and in the same format as your student images and label it with your school name only (e.g. Yale.jpg).  We will put this photo into our template with your school name and faculty, so no need to include that in the image.

Eligibility
All work made by students (as defined above) are eligible. Select work from current students only. Work must have been created between January 2019 and February 2020.  Artworks included in previous SNAG student exhibitions and/or created before 2019 are not eligible. SNAG membership is not required for participation, though membership is always encouraged!
