Pace University's Art Department presented 'Junkyard: Project Studio Senior Capstone Exhibition' from May 2–14, 2026, at the Pace University Art Gallery in New York. The show featured graduating BFA students working across sculpture, painting, video, and mixed media, with a public reception on May 1 and artist talks on May 7 as part of Undergraduate Research and Creative Inquiry Day.
This exhibition matters because it marks the culmination of sustained independent artistic investigations by emerging visual artists, offering them a professional gallery platform and public engagement opportunities. It highlights the role of university art programs in launching new creative voices and fostering community connections through student capstone projects.
