Small groups continue to rotate for annual faculty exhibitions. This year's featured artists are John Cunningham, Kate Leavitt, Margo Mensing, Deborah Morris, Rebecca Shepard, and Kathleen Thum. Cunningham will show sculpture; Mensing will exhibit an installation in a variety of materials; Leavitt, and Morris, paintings; and Shepard and Thum, mixed media works on paper. These artists are able to show a larger number of works than faculty members have exhibited in previous years when more than 20 artists participated in the annual exhibit. Skidmore studio art faculty have shown regionally and nationally, and most have gallery affiliations in one or more major cities throughout the country, are represented in numerous public and private collections, and have been the recipients of significant awards.

The Skidmore College studio art faculty consists of 15 full-time professors and eight part-time visiting assistant professors, representing a wide variety of disciplines including art theory and foundations, ceramics, communication design, drawing and painting, electronic media, fiber arts, metals, photography, printmaking, and sculpture.
