The UNM School of Law Not-for-Profit Art Gallery invites artists connected to UNM to submit their art for consideration for the 2020-21 exhibition.

Submissions from other UNM students, faculty, staff, alumni, relatives, and friends are welcome and will be considered for exhibition after all UNM Law student work has been reviewed.
