A public reception will take place Saturday, April 1st from 2:00 - 5:00 p.m. at the MacKenzie Art Gallery. Remarks and greetings will be at 3:00 p.m. with food, music, silent auction, and a short program. Everyone is welcome and admission is free to all.

Nonagon In|Flux is a collection of artworks by the graduating visual arts students which approaches an incredible range of conceptual concerns with surface, light, the body, and identity. Subject matter is diverse, from visualizing immigrant women's stories to the intimate and delicately rendered abstract forms in ceramics; new feminist sensibilities and the struggle between optimism and pessimism. This contemporary exhibition is reflective of the voices within it and the broader social, political, and cultural concerns within our society.

Come see what the next generation of artists is creating! If you or anyone you know is considering a career in art, come see what the U of R has to offer!
