About
A Juried Show that is only open to students and instructors from the RayKo Workshop program. We take pride in the excellent and diverse workshops offered here, and have watched so many students thrive in our program that we want to highlight the works you’ve created! It’s a great opportunity to get your work out into the world, and be seen by thousands of people. There will be a main gallery exhibition, an online exhibition of the selected images that “win” for each semester, and there will be two entry rounds for images to be published in our Workshop Catalog. In each of the two catalog selection rounds, the prizes are class credits towards a workshop of your choice.
