Oakland University students will get a chance to display their artwork on campus come January.

OU student congress has been working with the Oakland Center administration since last year on the Grizz Art program.

Richard Fekel, director of the OC, said he has been interested in something like this for a while.

“I think it’s a good opportunity for art students to showcase some of their artwork,” Fekel said.

On Tuesday, Fekel told OUSC to continue moving forward with the program.

The deadline for students to apply is Dec. 10. Applications can be picked up online at www.oakland.edu/ousc or on campus at 49 Oakland Center or in Wilson Hall.

Interested students can also email JPEG photographs of the artwork to [email protected] with name, contact information and description of the art.

Selected artwork will be displayed in the narrow corridor across from the Gold Rooms in the Oakland Center in two month rotations, starting January.

Fekel said they’re looking into installing the display systems now.
