CURRENT EXHIBITIONS

Metamorphosis
03.07.25 - 05.31.25
Ruth Brennan Gallery

The Metamorphosis Exhibition showcases 15 murals created by students in JSC and the juvenile diversion program as part of the Just Us Mural Project (JUMP). Supported by a U.S. Department of Justice grant, this initiative empowers justice-involved youth through culturally relevant arts education.
​
With the freedom of expression, youth from Rapid City have been collaborating on murals both on canvas and in Art Alley. These students have been building artistic skills, processing trauma, and developing compassion for their past to dream of their future. On display from March 7 through May 31, the exhibition highlights the transformative power of art in creating resilience and fostering positive change.

Desy Schoenewies, a professor at BHSU, reflects on the artistic talent coming out of BHSU, “Over the years, we have witnessed our students' remarkable growth in creativity, ingenuity, and artistic proficiency. Through our rigorous curriculum, mentorship, and access to state-of-the-art equipment and facilities, students have been empowered to push the boundaries of their creativity and explore new artistic horizons.” She says, “The BHSU fine art student exhibition stands as a proof to their commitment to their craft and their endless potential as artists.”
