The Art Chapter

We are now accepting art submissions for the Alumni Art Chapter's Open Invitational and Membership Show. Deadline is May 1, 2009.
More information(pdf)

The Art Chapter has a long history of bringing its members and the greater Sacramento community together in celebrating the arts. Working with the Sacramento State Art Department, the Chapter has hosted several art-related films; hosted the reception of painter and instructor Wayne Thiebaud; brought filmmaker Mark Herzig to present "Scherzo" and speak about cinematography; and for more than a decade has hosted the annual "Grad Ball."

The Art Chapter was responsible for the critically acclaimed, "Sacramento State 50th Anniversary Show," a juried show with more than 150 pieces displayed on four floors of the Sacramento State Library; "CAMS," the Chapter´s very successful annual juried membership show; and in 2004 the "Sacramento State Art Chapter Invitational Exhibition" presented in the Sacramento State University Union Gallery.

In addition to its active on-campus roll, the Art Chapter has an equally active off-campus outreach program. Members of the Chapter's Executive Board have given presentations at local community colleges, instructed and entertained children and brought art to various organizations and schools that would not otherwise had the opportunity.

Speech, Pathology & Audiology

Established in fall 2007, the purpose of the Speech Pathology & Audiology (SPA) Alumni Chapter is to promote common interests of its members for the benefit of the university and its alumni.  This includes a focus on raising funds to provide support for the Maryjane Reese Language, Speech and Hearing Center, an essential component of the graduate program, and the department of Speech Pathology & Audiology.  The Alumni Chapter also focuses on creating an opportunity for mentoring and networking between alumni members and students while enriching the university learning experience.

In October 2007, the Chapter celebrated with the Department of Speech Pathology & Audiology a very important milestone – 55 Years of Speech Pathology and Audiology at Sacramento State!  The special event, held at the Alumni Center, brought together hundreds of students, alumni, faculty and staff.  The Speech Pathology & Audiology Alumni Chapter made its debut by hosting a raffle of prizes donated by the community.  The Chapter was happy to reach its first fundraising goal!

The future of the SPA Alumni Chapter at Sacramento State looks promising.  It continues to grow and develop and will continue to be a Chapter that members will be proud to join.
