Creative academy students to showcase talents at “All Every Thing” Portshowlio
Each year, graduating students of the Creative Academy host a portfolio show, or “Portshowlio,” to showcase their work to potential employers and the broader community. Graduating second-year Photography and Graphic Design students have been working to plan, install and promote this year’s show over the last couple of months. First-year students provide event support so graduates can focus on presenting their work to attendees.
This year’s theme, “All Every Thing,” was selected by students to best represent the diverse talents of the Academy’s students. Each student chose three adjectives to complete the prompt “All Every +____” in order to describe their individual portfolios.
The event takes place over two nights. On Wednesday, June 17, the professional reception will bring prospective employers, industry professionals and alumni to campus so that graduates can network. The following evening, on Thursday, June 18, students will open up the fifth floor to friends, family and the public from 5 to 9 p.m. For more information about this year’s show and to view students’ projects, check out the 2015 Portshowlio website.
