Var Gallery annually presents its Emerging Artists Exhibition. Select artists from both MIAD and the Peck School of the Arts were chosen based on unique vision, socially engaging concepts, innovative techniques, active studio practice, and participation within a broader artistic network. Curator and Gallery owner Josh Hintz says about the importance of showcasing new talent, “Milwaukee's creative culture has been on the rise and thriving. It is increasingly important that we continue to support the emerging artists that are ambitiously doing their part to perpetuate this collective effort through community involvement and engaging work.”
