Laguna Art Museum (LAM) is proud to present Memories of Now: LCAD MFA Exhibition, on view from April 15 through September 24, 2025. This exhibition highlights a selection of artwork from the 2025 Master of Fine Art graduates of Laguna College of Art and Design (LCAD), offering an exclusive look into the innovative visions of emerging contemporary artists.
Artists are drawn to LCAD for its commitment to mastering time-honored artistic techniques while encouraging personal, contemporary expression. Memories of Now embodies this philosophy, featuring works that are both technically masterful and deeply relevant to today’s artistic landscape.
“We can’t wait to bring this dynamic exhibition to Laguna Art Museum, celebrating the next generation of artists,” said Julie Perlin Lee, Executive Director of Laguna Art Museum. “These emerging talents exemplify the strength of LCAD’s MFA program and we are thrilled to provide a platform for their work.”
