Visiting Artists & Designers

The visiting artists and designers lecture series is an important component of the Visual Arts program at UMBC. By bringing contemporary artists and designers from around the country to discuss their work, students gain a greater perspective about local, regional and international art communities. The lectures are also inspirational and provide students and faculty with different insights and potentials for their own art practices.
