Student Exhibition Award Winners
Students who participated in Sinclair’s fine arts program during the recent academic year are invited to submit work to a juried exhibition each spring. The juror of the exhibition, who changes each year, selects award winners (Best of Show, 2nd, and 3rd place) in the following categories: Painting, Printmaking, Collage, Drawing, Photography, Sculpture, and Ceramics.
