In 1988, the first fine arts graduates of STCC walked in the commencement ceremony. Since that time, the Fine Arts program has graduated 164 students with an associate’s degree. Graduates can transfer to a four-year program, enter the workforce, or live with an appreciation for art that can last a lifetime.

Today, these eleven faculty members support 76 FINE.AA majors, and over 500 students are enrolled in fine arts courses across all majors this fall. Their commitment to excellence in teaching and artmaking practice makes this program a beacon of creativity and support for artists of all ages in Springfield.

The Amy H. Carberry Fine Arts Gallery at Springfield Technical Community College proudly presents the Spring 2026 Student Fine Arts Exhibition on view through Saturday, May 9, 2026.

This exhibition will conclude with a “Friends and Family” reception on Saturday, May 9, from 11 AM to 1 PM. Everyone is welcome to attend.

Each semester, the STCC Fine Arts program faculty selects work to showcase their students' best creations. From oil paintings and intricate designs to portraits and 3D sculptures to traditional gelatin silver photographs and many other outstanding art projects, the artwork represents the culmination of a semester’s efforts. Regardless of academic major or career goals, fine art courses are open to everyone; no prior art experience is required to register.

This show also highlights the work of eight STCC Fine Arts majors graduating this May: Alaina Brackley, Luz Marcano, Allan Cangelosi, Aaron Rathburn, Judah Rios, Melissa Mejia Mendez, Julia Salazar, and Marah Wedderburn.
