Ron Cubbison Alumni Exhibition

Exhibition and Fellowship Call

Ron Cubbison Alumni Exhibition and Travel Awards

The Department of Art + Design, Art History, Art Education of Towson University seeks undergraduate and graduate alumni of former professor Ron Cubbison for exhibition of their work and the awarding of travel fellowships. Professor Cubbison, who died in 2008, taught at Towson University for thirty years, from 1966 to 1996. He was a firm believer in the individual vision of his students and in the power and impact of travel abroad as an inspiration for creativity. With this belief in mind, he created a one-time fellowship award for his former students to be used for travel abroad. All students who studied with Professor Cubbison and who are still actively making art should apply to take part in a juried exhibition to take place in the Center for the Arts, September 13, 2012—October 7, 2012. Five of his former students whose works are juried into this exhibition will then be chosen by a panel of judges to receive substantive travel abroad fellowships. Upon return home from their travels, these travel award winners will participate in a second group exhibition of their new works. The second exhibition of work by the fellowship winners will take place in 2014.
