UCSC ArtShow: Porter's Online Gallery

In circumstances we find ourselves;  our community physically dispersed across the state - country - planet, we want to provide an opportunity for us to come together as if we were still all here at UC Santa Cruz and Porter College.

Hosted by the Porter Activities Office, the UCSC ArtShow is dedicated to giving student artists from across campus (not limited to Porter or the Art Department) the opportunity to share their beautiful work in an online gallery space. 

Please see the introduction byThe ArtShow's curator.

The Primary venue for the galley will be Porter’s Instagram and we will mirror that gallery on the Porter Activities webpage.
