School of Visual Arts (SVA) presents “Début 24,” the annual exhibition of multidisciplinary work by BFA Design and BFA Advertising students and recent alumni. The department-curated exhibition will be on view from Monday, March 25 through Friday, May 3, at the SVA Gramercy Gallery, 209 E 23rd Street, New York. Thanks to the use of digital displays, viewers will have the opportunity to peruse over 200 student projects in addition to the dimensional pieces in a polished gallery space.

This year’s spring salon displays the breadth of student work created during the 2023–2024 school year, from graphic design and motion graphics to interaction and traditional and emerging advertising. The exhibition will also feature three-dimensional design work, including imaginative pieces from the new fabrication lab and captivating creations from the 3D Design students.

The BFA Design program has consistently produced some of the most innovative, trendsetting and acclaimed designers across both traditional and emerging industries. Its curriculum is rooted in a strong foundational understanding of visual communication. It also pushes the boundaries of design and creativity by putting exciting new tools and technologies into the hands of students, resulting in diverse, dynamic and visionary design work. With such a varied landscape of career opportunities, students are offered a space to not only study design in its many forms, but to also have a hand in designing the future.

BFA Advertising knows that for students to be successful, they must know how to think big and have the ability to bring those big ideas to life. The department offers an immersive education across a variety of media and new technologies. Students are prepared with the skills, knowledge and opportunities necessary to excel and thrive in this exciting and ever- changing industry. Situated at the center of the advertising capital of the world, the BFA Advertising program pulls its faculty from the biggest and best agencies to teach and inspire the next generation of creative thinkers, problem-solvers and elite professionals.
