Save the Arts Festival at RIT, April 30
The festival features work from students, faculty, alumni and local artists and was created in response to budget cuts to support public school art programs. It is sponsored by the Student Volunteer Office and Student Government. All of the proceeds from the festival will directly support Rochester art education.
Artist tables cost $25 for RIT students, faculty, staff and alumni and $100 for local artists. For more information, contact the RIT Student Volunteer Office at 475-6056 or svoccl@rit.edu.
