Each year, the collaborative exhibition is scheduled as part of the Journées européennes du patrimoine, a trans-national celebration of Europe’s cultural heritage; the event’s theme this year is "The Art of Sharing," which exhibition organizers adopted as well. "Sharing is not an art, but I tried to find art by SVA students or alumni that depicted something that looked like sharing," DiTommaso explained. "Alternatively, I sought works that were vivid [and] uplifting—while also reflecting our students’ capabilities and creativity."

Thirty-two SVA students and alumni will exhibit at Saint-Paul this year, including six who are showing graduate and undergraduate animations on a monitor—"a first in our years exhibiting there," Di Tommaso noted. The wide-ranging works on display, presented in the Romanesque cloister of the 11th-century monastery, come from graduate and undergraduate illustrators and fine artists, as well as advertising and interior design students.
