On My Own Time at Syracuse University opens with an in-house exhibit on April 30 in the Noble Room of Hendricks Chapel. It will be open weekdays from 8:30 a.m.– 5 p.m. through May 16.
A panel of professional artists assembled by CNY Arts will serve as judges. Artwork selected by the panel will be featured in a public exhibit at the Everson Museum this fall. Visitors to the on-campus exhibit will be able to vote for a “Best of Show” piece. The winner of this and other categories will be announced at a closing reception for the University community, artists and their family members, and volunteers on Wednesday, May 16 at 4:30 p.m. in the Noble Room.

If you want to help with the show, volunteers are needed to check in art on April 26, set up the show on April 27, and other duties on May 16.
