Budget

School Councils budget for Art School Council

Create opportunities for art students to exhibit their work

The Art School Council acts as a resource for current art students to exhibit their work and introduce themselves as serious artists to the Washington University community and to the larger art community of St. Louis

Fall Installation Fellowship

The goals of the Fellowships are to promote on-campus art by providing monetary and developmental support to Wash U students for large-scale installations on campus. Students apply with proposals for semester long projects which will be reviewed by a selection committee of students and campus administrators. This opportunity will be open to any students with creative ambitions. This is also be a good introduction to the fellowship application process for students interested in pursuing careers in public art, while enriching the campus environment.

Fall Student Art Show

The Art School Council has been responsible for helping finance student-run art shows in the various art departments. The student-shows propose budgets for material expenses meeting SU guidelines, and we help pay for a portion of the costs. Without this service, most students would not have the opportunity to exhibit and introduce themselves to the St. Louis Art Community and prospective patrons.

Increase visibility of the Art School on Main Campus

Art Students spend a large amount of time at the art school working in studios. They are also students on main campus, taking classes in the other colleges, participating as active members in other student groups, and making use of the resources available to all students of the university. The Art School Council exists in part to bridge the gap between the School of Art and main campus, making students in other colleges aware of the programs and events going on at the art school and bringing art-related activities to main campus.

Art Prom

The Art Prom is the School of Art's annual visual-themed formal that exposes the rest of the university to the School of Art. All members of the Wash U community are welcome to this social event which engages attendees in the various facets of performance. While the ticket sales and other fund raising activities raise a significant portion of the expenses, additional funds are required to cover the entire event and keep ticket costs affordable for all students.

College of Art Lecture Series

A very important part of the education of an artist is being exposed to other artist's work and their ideas that informed art practice. The lecture series provides a great opportunity for students to expand on their education. In addition to providing the opportunity for Art Students to hear from notable artists, curators and designers; these lectures often attract a substantial portion of their audience from students in other colleges. Whereas Art Council acts to promote not only the existence of physical art on campus but in addition the existence of contemporary art dialogue we feel that these speakers are pivotal to aiding in this very important goal. This lecture series is hosted in conjunction with the College of Art and The Samfox School for Design and Visual Arts.

Provide support for art-related initiatives and groups tied to the school of art

There are many student groups that either originate in the art school or are directly related to the promotion of art and art education. The Art School Council provides some monetary support for these groups when their budgets or category status does not allow them to complete all of their own goals.
