About the 2025 Student Exhibition | March 15–April 27, 2025
The annual Student Exhibition, a tradition for over 70 years at the Parrish, features the work of more than 1,000 young artists from Eastern Long Island schools. Working with their art teachers, after school programs and in art clubs, the students demonstrate creativity, enthusiasm, and technical skill in media ranging from painting to sculpture, drawing, and photography. This exhibition will also feature student works created with visiting artist Andrea Cote.
Visiting Artist Initiative
The Parrish’s Visiting Artist Initiative, How Artists Work, connects students and teachers with working artists, providing insights into their artistic practices and guiding students through their own creative explorations. The program has expanded to include participants in the Access Parrish program. This year, the exhibition highlights work created by students in collaboration with visiting artist Andrea Cote. Drawing on her recent project for the Museum’s 13th Parrish Road Show at Bridge Gardens in Fall 2024, To Belong to the World, Cote shared her process and inspiration for the site-specific works which incorporated garden plant life and explored her body’s connection to nature’s cycles. Students experimented with several techniques she uses to develop her imagery including cyanotype and printmaking, incorporating themes of the human body and our interconnectedness with nature. The final installation of the show is curated by the ARTscope Teen Council.
