SUNY Oneonta Students Exhibit Artwork in Jean Parish Scholarship Art Show

Seven SUNY Oneonta students had their artwork on display in the Jean Parish Scholarship: 2026-2027 exhibition in the Project Space Gallery. An opening reception in the gallery was held on Thursday, Sept. 10.

The Jean Parish Scholarship: 2026-2027 is a group exhibition by the student recipients of the 2026-2027 Jean Parish Memorial Scholarship featuring work by Sydney Creason, Tessa DeLisio, Madison Jahnke, Lily Linehan, Mordue Reinhardt, Wendy Tenecela and Anh Verity. It includes multidisciplinary artwork such as painting, sculpture, design and digital art.

Faculty Emerita Jean Parish enjoyed a lengthy teaching career at SUNY Oneonta, leaving behind a gift to provide financial assistance to students studying art. One of the two endowed funds she set in place supports the Jean Parish Scholarship, distributed by the Art Department through a competitive process every fall semester. Art majors already enrolled in the program are eligible to apply during or after their first semester, and the department gives several non-renewable awards for the academic year.

Admission to the gallery and reception is free and open to the public, and visitors can receive parking passes through the University Police Department. Gallery hours are 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday.
