The HUB is home to a number of art pieces throughout the building. The HUB Permanent Art Collection was initiated in 1998 to showcase the creative talent of students at the University of Washington. Acquiring and exhibiting art created exclusively by students supports their diverse artistic and creative abilities, encourages the expression of ideas and aesthetic concepts, and contributes significantly to the character of the HUB. Mediums currently represented by the Collection include paintings, mixed media, print, lithographs and photography.
The HUB Director’s Art Award
To foster the intellectual and creative strengths of our students, the HUB Director’s Art Award rewards excellence by purchasing and displaying student artwork in the HUB Permanent Art Collection. Members of the selection committee visit the Bachelors and Masters of Fine Arts shows in the spring to select finalists. With this award, the HUB Permanent Art Collection continues to be a unique and important contribution to student life and the campus community.
