the BENEFITS

Food in academic settings takes on a very different feel and taste.  I spent a year in culinary school before I realized I didn’t have the stamina to make my living standing on my feet.  But, I learned priceless knife and sauce skills that I treasure.  One of the most interesting things about my inital year at Johnson & Wales was the time spent on analyzing the basics, perfecting the standards before having the freedom to break the rules.  This next Call is for media considered the foundation of art education, but there’s no restriction on content.  Break the rules for me…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Department of Art & Art History at the University of Texas (Tyler, TX) for their 27th Annual International Exhibition.  Here’s your chance to be in a permanent collection.  Take a look…
