SHOWING UP Shepherd Senior Exhibits By Nancy McKeithen

Each year, the dates and the names change, but the Capstone Exhibit remains — that annual right [sic] of passage for graduating seniors in the Department of Contemporary Art and Theater at Shepherd University in Shepherdstown, West Virginia.

Meet seven of them: two graphic designers, two painters, two photographers and one sculptor.
