The Basement Gallery is looking for art for our next Art & Conversation Podcast: New Beginnings! Were looking to hear from previous BG Members, 1st year MFA and undergraduate students, graduating MFA students, graduating BG members, UCD alumni, but all majors/mediums are welcome to apply!

New Beginnings is our next virtual art show with a twist! We would like to feature your art on the BG Instagram and hear more of your thoughts! What portions of your studio practice do you think will be forever changed as a result of the pandemic? How much different do you feel critiques and interactions with your peers and instructors are in a virtual space? Has it changed the way you view your own art and practice? Do you think your sense of community is different from your pre-covid learning? Additionally, we would like to hear about the new experiences and goals you are looking forward to whether you are furthering your academic career or moving on! Artists will provide images of their work that will be showcased on the BG Instagram and if they like, also provide topics they would like to cover in the podcast.
