About The Art Gallery at UWF

The Art Gallery (TAG) at the University of West Florida seeks to challenge, stimulate, and engage students and the greater public through direct interaction with works of contemporary art.  TAG's series of revolving exhibitions highlight both student work as well as innovative regional, national, and international artists. These exhibitions seek to promote contemporary critical thinking and cultural inspiration for the benefit of UWF students and the greater Gulf Coast community.

Every year, TAG features several solo and group exhibitions including the annual TAGGED Student Art and Design Competition, a biennial Art Faculty Exhibition, and several graduating BFA Thesis Exhibitions. The Gallery functions as a not-for-profit pedagogical space with a main focus of creating a forum for community dialog centered around experimental and inventive artworks.

TAG is ideally located across from Main Stage Theatre and Music Hall in the Center of Fine and Performing Arts. Its high ceilings and 1,600 square feet offer a creative setting for artists to display work. The Gallery accepts proposals from emerging and established contemporary artists year around.

"The Painter's Dialectic Podcast: Critically Creative Conversations,” September 28

An Artist Roundtable and Reception

Join the Experience UWF Downtown Lecture Series on September 28 for the closing reception of the TAG Artist in Residence Exhibition, "Table 7: In The House of Partnership Alumni Show" featuring UWF alumni artists and friends Christian Dinh, Josh Green, Kenny Jordan, Selina McKane, and Dylan Ngan.

The title of this exhibition takes inspiration from the shared relationship of this group of friends. The Seventh House, in astrology, is referred to as the House of Partnership. In that house, one shifts away from the self toward another—a partner. Collaboration unites beliefs and values for the purpose of achieving something greater, uniting the efforts of each of the individuals

The show will include a live recording of  "The Painter’s Dialectic Podcast: Critically Creative Conversations" starting at 6:00 p.m.

This event will be held in The Art Gallery at the UWF Center for Fine and Performing Arts and begins with a reception at 5 p.m.

It is free and open to the public.

This installment is presented and sponsored by the UWF College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities in partnership with the UWF Department of Art and Design.
