The 12 x 12 SPARK Exhibition will showcase 12” x 12” artworks from artists in the greater acadiana region along with UL alums, staff, and faculty at the fletcher Hall gallery located on the 2nd floor of Fletcher Hall. The exhibition will help raise funds for the college’s SPARK Annual Fund. The SPARK Annual Fund is committed to funding facets of college and student development that help to make the College of the Arts a vibrant and thriving community. Your gift to the College of the Arts transforms creativity into opportunity, sparks artistic brilliance and builds a tradition of excellence. Give now to support the greatest needs of the college such as the Dean Scholars, grants for original research, and student organizational support through the SPARK Annual Fund.

12 x 12 SPARK Exhibition & Fundraiser will run from September 6 – October 28, 2022.

All works will be made available to purchase online unless designated otherwise. Bids for each piece will start at $200. Collectors who fear losing a piece of art in the auction may utilize the “Buy It Now” option to trump the online auction. The College of the Arts will retain 50% commission on any artwork sold in the 12 x 12 SPARK Exhibition, unless the artist donates their 50% to the COA, in which case, COA retains 100% of the sales. Works not sold will be returned to artists

We hope you’ll still consider giving to the College, this time without having a Ball or getting dressed up.  This year, we want every dollar to count toward our students’ success.
