Note from the Curator:
Creatives thrive professionally by knowing other creatives. That was the original inspiration for developing this exhibition opportunity for student artists. As an artist and educator, I recognize the critical need for student artists to gain experience in exhibiting their work and building their network of creative colleagues in their own backyard. This project focused solely on San Diego North County students as a means to build an immediate geographic community for local artists. It was also crucial for this exhibition to be held at the Hill Street Country Club, a community-responsive cultural hub of North County's creative energy. My deepest gratitude to the team that has helped make this possible: our visionary guest jurors, Dinah Poellnitz & Michelle Montjoy; North County Higher Education Alliance collaborators from our two other North County colleges: Professor Judit Hersko from California. State University, San Marcos, Professor Ingram Ober from Palomar College; and Dara Vasko, Co-Curator from MiraCosta College.

This exhibition is made possible through the generous funding of the North County Higher Education Alliance, an education collaborative between MiraCosta College, Palomar College,and Cal State San Marcos. NCHEA promotes working relationships and active communication among faculty, staff and students at the three institutions by focusing on student learning and the seamless transfer of students from lower to upper division programs.
