MIAD's 50th anniversary paints the perfect backdrop for its annual Senior Exhibition

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- What the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design does each and every year with its Senior Exhibition is so much more than your "run of the mill" class project.

It's a way to showcase 200 different kinds of work from emerging, creative professionals. In many ways, it lets artists show off their portfolios for the entire world to see in a gallery setting.

This time around, it's even more significant as the school celebrates its 50^th anniversary.

There's no price of admission to see this Senior Exhibition at MIAD's Third Ward campus. It runs through May 11. Click here to learn more about this special exhibit.
