GRADUATE SUMMER EXHIBITION of CRANBROOK ACADEMY OF ART
June

Cranbrook Academy of Art is an internationally recognized school of
art, design and architecture comprised of a community of working artists
and students. Established in 1932, the Academy of Art’s Graduate
Program remains a “living studio of artistic invention”
as envisioned by its founder, newspaper publisher and philanthropist
George Booth.
The prestigious two-year Graduate Program includes 150 students working
with ten Artists-in-Residence, each of whom heads one of the Academy’s
ten departments: 2D
Design, 3D
Design, Architecture,
Ceramics,
Fiber,
Metalsmithing,
Painting,
Photography,
Print
Media, and Sculpture.
Each April, as part of the requirements for earning either a Master
of Fine Arts or Master of Architecture degree, the second-year Master’s
degree candidates present their thesis work in the annual Graduate Degree
Exhibition. This year seventy students participated in the exhibition
and received Master’s degrees in May.
