The 2026 University of Florida Juried Student Art Exhibition is a vibrant and thought-provoking showcase of student talent, offering a unique glimpse into the multifaceted practices of the selected artists. As in years past, the works were anonymously shared with the juror and the jurying process involved consideration of certain criteria, such as innovation and originality, craftsmanship and technique, and content and subject matter, but the most convincing criteria was the overall impact of the work. From a pool of 50 submissions, works by 25 undergraduate and graduate students were selected, representing a spectrum of mediums: painting, sculpture, ceramics, textile, video, photography, and digital art. 

Participating Artists: Savannah Braun, Alaina Ettema, Lance Madridondo, Taylor Baxley, Grace Bishop, Maria del Pilar Arrieta, Sydney Hinton, Sarah Stander, Kate Cameron, Natalie Robles Forton, Elise Goosen, Rachel Horn, Suhwan Chae, Claire Moody, Sari Homer, Charis Cochran, Brandon Poll, Maximos Barogiannis, Jade Bennett, Cing Huai, Kayli Richter, Dodson, Aurora Pavlish-Carpenter, Nicholas Harrington, & Sarah Gunn.
