Jump Start Biennial Student Exhibition "Finding Ourselves"

Every two years, the Buffalo Arts Studio community comes together to celebrate the amazing students in our Jump Start program. This year's Biennial Student Exhibition is titled, Finding Ourselves. Finding Ourselves will include nearly 200 artworks by current Jump Start students as well as college students and graduates who participate in our Jump Start Extension program. The title of the show was chosen by the students and speaks to the journey they have been on both personally and with their art. Work in a variety of media will be on display including drawing, painting, video, ceramics, and multimedia.

Jump Start works with middle and high school students who show a strong ability and deep interest in the visual arts and guides them along their college and career path. Jump Start is an essential part of Buffalo Arts Studio’s larger mission of cultural access, providing high-quality art instruction, professional development, portfolio preparation, exhibiting experience, and individual mentorship to students across Western New York, regardless of the ability to pay.
