ESCANABA — The Bay College exhibition, “The Celebration of Student Success,” will showcase works by students enrolled in Fall 2025 art courses.

“Bay College is excited to announce the reception for the Student Art Exhibition … We look forward to this exhibition at the end of each semester,” the college states in a news release.

The opening reception and awards ceremony will be 2 p.m. Thursday. This is an opportunity to meet the artists and engage in conversations about their work.

Student work will be displayed in the Besse Gallery, 2001 N. Lincoln Road, from Thursday through January.

The exhibition represents a culmination of a semester of work for these students. The exhibit will include digital cinema videos, drawings and sculptures, according to the college.

The exhibited works originated from these art classes — Digital Cinema, Drawing I and II, and Introduction to Art Design. This is a juried art show in which one artwork per course will be purchased and become part of Bay’s permanent art collection. Second and third place winners will receive monetary awards.
