SUNY Oneonta’s campus is filled with color, texture and creative energy this spring as the 2026 Juried Student Show continues at the Martin–Mullen Art Gallery. The annual art exhibition, which opened March 24 and runs through May 2, features nearly 70 student artists and more than 90 works spanning painting, sculpture, ceramics, photography, digital art, mixed media and experimental forms.
A reception for the exhibition will be held on Thursday, April 30, offering the public an opportunity to meet some of the student artists and experience the work firsthand. There will also be 17 awards presented to students at the 5-7 p.m. event. Both the show and the reception are free and open to the public, part of SUNY Oneonta’s ongoing commitment to showcasing student creativity through its campus art galleries.
The show contains work submitted by students and selected by a committee of art faculty, alongside work from the past year’s art courses that is pre-selected by instructors. For many students, inclusion in the Juried Student Show is both an honor and a major milestone.
