Chloey Dalrymple of Seven Points, a Bachelor of Fine Arts in studio art degree candidate at The University of Texas at Tyler, is one of two UT Tyler students featured in the Emerging Artist 2023 Ceramics Exhibition, hosted by Lee College. This is Dalrymple’s first exhibition where her work is shown.

The annual exhibit includes the work of ceramic faculty across the state along with one or two of their most promising students working in clay.

“UT Tyler student work has been featured in this exhibition for the past 15 years,” said UT Tyler professor of studio art and department chair Merrie Wright, whose work is also featured. “It is a great opportunity for students to disseminate their research and build their professional exhibition resume.”

Sponsored by CAMEO, the exhibit concludes Saturday, Oct. 21.

“I am excited about this opportunity and the fact that my professor asked me to show my work
alongside hers, as well as one of our graduate students,” said Dalrymple.

Dalrymple will graduate with a UT Tyler BFA in studio art in spring 2024.
