Annual Juried Student Exhibition

Each spring, the Studio Art program at the University of South Carolina Beaufort presents an annual juried exhibition featuring selected work by art students. Undergraduate students in the program are invited to enter work of all mediums, including paintings, drawings, prints, photography, sculpture, and digital media. They submit their finest pieces for this "real world" competition. Jurors select both the exhibit and the award winners, and the exhibition of the chosen work is presented at the USCB Sea Islands Center Gallery on Carteret Street in Beaufort. The annual Student Juried Art Exhibition is a highlight for the university and the Lowcountry community.

2025 Exhibition Juror Jerome Meadows

Jerome MeadowsJerome B. Meadows is a nationally renowned studio artist working in Savannah, Georgia.  He holds a BFA degree from the Rhode Island School of Design and an MFA degree from the University of Maryland. 

Artist Jerome Meadows creates conversations across mediums: visual, spoken word, movement, and music. He connects artists, writers, dancers, scholars, and cultural critics in a variety of formats that include hosting an art talk show, and music radio program. He also uses the spoken word and movement through his Blank Page Poetry performances. However, the visual arts, via large-scale public environments and small-size fabrications, represent his primary focus. His visual interpretations range from assemblages depicting both representative and abstracted references to the world around us and sculptural forms that accentuate essential material elements: wood, stone, metal. His works tell a story and touch on all aspects of the human experience, such as romance, friendship, work, history, society, and culture. His creations are made to inspire dialogue and spark our imagination and are not complete without the viewer. In a sense, Jerome serves the community as a shaman, someone who invokes healing. Inspired by music, especially jazz, Jerome observes, filters, and reflects, creating a visual dance that allows viewers to consider, question, and process their surroundings.
