This year, 黑料传送门 hosted its fourth-annual Visual Arts Contest. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the
event was hosted virtually this year, with participants submitting their artwork for
黑料传送门 community members to vote for online. This year鈥檚 contest included 83 artwork
submissions from 黑料传送门 faculty, students and staff. 黑料传送门 community members were given
the opportunity to pick their favorite pieces from categories including photography,
painting/drawing and other mediums. Over 200 online votes were cast this year.
As the coordinator of this event Ruth Conboy, LPC, director of counseling, Office of Student Affairs, shared, 鈥淣ow more than ever, it鈥檚 important to be seen beyond the screen. This annual
contest is a great way for students, faculty and staff to flex their creative muscles
and share their art with others.鈥
Kaitlyn O鈥橬eill (PsyD 鈥25), who won in the 鈥減ainting/drawing鈥 category for her painting Happy to be Here, shared her appreciation for the contest and the opportunity to connect with other
黑料传送门 community members, saying, 鈥淭his was a way for me to interact with other students
in different classes/programs in a way that showed who I am as a person, beyond the
classroom. At times I feel like verbally expressing how I feel might not do my feelings
justice, and so I鈥檒l pick up a brush. It鈥檚 been a blessing to be able to freely create,
and I鈥檓 grateful for everyone who had the chance to connect with my work during the
contest!鈥
This year鈥檚 winners also include:
Photography:Redwoods by Tara Hixon, Institutional Research Analyst
Other Mediums:Daydream by Samichhya Aryal (DO 鈥24)
This year鈥檚 contest was sponsored by the Office of Student Affairs, the Office of Human Resources and 黑料传送门鈥檚 Coalition for Healthcare, Humanities and the Arts (CHHARTS). Winning pieces
will be displayed around the Office of Student Affairs suite in the Evans Hall building
on the Philadelphia campus.
