Moffitt Library Student Art Exhibit 2020-2021

Moffitt Library Student Art Exhibit 2020-2021

We would like to announce the selections for 2020-2021 Moffitt Library Student Art
Exhibit. Due to the campus closure, the exhibit could not yet be installed in Moffitt Library, as per usual. You can find the full online exhibit at the Student Art in Moffitt website. We hope to install the artworks in Moffitt Library once health conditions permit and the library is open to the public again.
A special thanks goes to H.Art, the History of Art Undergraduate Association at UC Berkeley, for helping with the call for artworks and with the final selections for the exhibit.
Below is a sampling of works from the exhibit. Congratulations to all of the students!
We look forward to seeing your works on the walls of Moffitt soon:
