Kirk Newman Art School Faculty Review
October 11, 2025 - January 25, 2026
The biennial Kirk Newman Art School Faculty Review showcases why KNAS faculty members are among some of the leading artists in Southwest Michigan. Featuring new directions in the work of more than 50 professional artist-educators, this dynamic display not only showcases their artistic achievements but also highlights the creative processes that drive them. Visitors will encounter a wide range of media and approaches—ceramics, sculpture, painting, jewelry, photography, fiber, and more—while gaining insight into the techniques, experimentation, and methods at the heart of each practice.
By emphasizing process, this year’s biennial underscores the spirit of exploration and innovation that fuels both studio art and art education. Although many of these award-winning artists exhibit widely across the region, this is a rare opportunity to experience their works together as a team dedicated to making, teaching, and sharing the visual arts within and beyond the Kirk Newman Art School studios.
