“Artists and scientists tend to approach problems with a similar open-mindedness and inquisitiveness — they both do not fear the unknown, preferring leaps to incremental steps.”  - John Maeda, Scientific American

 The Cloyde Snook Gallery at the Art Department, Adams State University, seeks artwork in all media for a national juried exhibition.

For “LEAP” we seek artworks that combine, collaborate with, incorporate, or explore science, new technology, engineering, or mathematics.

This could include works in robotics, architectural design, interactive design, data visualization, nanotech, digital fabrication, virtual reality etc, as well as traditional art media. Collaborative works are welcome.

Located on the Campus of Adams State University, the mission of the Cloyde Snook Gallery is to provide an artistic, educational and cultural learning experience for the local, regional, and university communities.  As the largest venue for visual arts in the San Luis Valley, the gallery exhibits works by local, regional, national and international artists.
