Art Exhibits

Each year International Affairs displays five to six art exhibits with international themes in the galleries of the International Cultural Center. Although many of our exhibits are “one time only”, several exhibits are displayed every year. All exhibits and receptions are free and open to the public.

The International Cultural Center welcomes exhibit proposals that explore international themes and perspectives. Exhibitions are typically scheduled 6–24 months in advance, so applicants should plan accordingly.

Exhibit Proposal Form

To be considered, proposals must include all required materials. Applicants will be notified of the review outcome once a decision has been made.

For additional exhibit information, please contact Mattie Moriearty at mattispa@ttu.edu.
