There have been various photographs on display on the first floor of the library for quite some time. They are not up on display at random but chosen carefully to present the talents of those who wish to have their work presented.
The photographs that are currently displayed have been submitted by Southern’s own faculty members. There are multiple exhibits per year.
Katie McGrath, who oversees the process of displaying the pictures, said, “students are strongly encouraged to share their work.”
Local artists, including students, faculty, community members and friends of Southern are encouraged to submit their work. McGrath says that students should submit their photographs even if they doubt the quality because sometimes those end up being the best photos. One of the goals of the exhibit, she says, is to give all artists’ work maximum exposure.

Katie McGrath, who oversees the process of displaying the pictures, said, “Students are strongly encouraged to share their work.” Even if students don’t think their works are good enough, McGrath insists on having them submitted anyway because sometimes those pieces tend to be the best. One of the goals is to give all artists maximum exposure of their work.
Students of all majors and class standings are more than welcome to submit their work. McGrath likes to focus on local artists, who are made up of students, faculty, members of the community and friends of Southern Adventist University.
