CoSA Graphic Design and CHS Digital Photography Unveil “PhotoGraphics,” an Exciting New Exhibit at C3 Gallery

Graphic Design students with the Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA) Digital Arts Conservatory and digital photography students from Coronado High School, in partnership with the Coronado Cultural Arts Commission, are proud to launch the new exhibit, “PhotoGraphics” at C3 Gallery. Members of the public are invited to an opening reception on Tuesday, March 12 from 5:30 to 7 pm in the Nautilus Room at the Coronado Community Center at 1845 Strand Way. The event is free and refreshments will be provided.

The C3 Gallery is located in the Coronado Community Center at 1845 Strand Way.

The exhibit will feature more than 100 works from more than 30 students, according to Anna Woerman, CoSA Digital Arts Conservatory Chair. This includes graphic designs ranging from digital paintings, advertisements, menus, posters, abstract photography and photo wood blocks.

“The students are excited to share their work with the Coronado community, outside the walls of the school,” said Woerman. “I think guests will enjoy the incredible talent and the variety of work from these students.”

The joint show—featuring both student graphic designers and student photographers—represents some of the strongest pieces from both groups. The CoSA graphic design students have been hard at work, meticulously curating and planning their individual layouts. The digital photography and graphic design elective classes are showcasing their understanding of design principles and tools, and applying them to photography and graphic arts pieces, according to Woerman.

The exhibit “PhotoGraphics” will be on display through May.
