Every summer at Hollins, we have an end-of-semester celebration for students graduating with a Certificate in Children's Book Illustration. It's a great opportunity for students throughout the program to show their work in the art show, while celebrating their friends' accomplishments. Ashley Wolff's doggie, Rufus, is the Commencement Speaker. (Kidding - it was Mary Jane Begin and Ashley!) Certificates are handed out individually (this is Beverly receiving hers)...

and this is the group of this year's recipients—Meg, Beverly, Claire, Donald, and Anna-Katherine:

The ceremony is a lovely, well-attended, laid back affair. Families come to help celebrate.

Partners come in for the last official night of the semester. Here's MJ with her beau, Andy.

Suffice to say, it was an amazing show, with amazing talent. We're so proud of our graduates!
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!!!
