Alumni Works Registry

About the Registry

The Alumni Works Registry allows graduates of the UT Austin Department of Art and Art History to connect with a wide range of opportunities in the department and beyond. It is a chance to showcase your work and view the works of fellow graduates.

We encourage all Alumni of the Department, in each of the four divisions of Studio Art, Art History, Design and Visual Art Studies / Art Eduction, to participate in the registry. We regret that we cannot accept scholarly research, projects, or papers at this time.

The registry serves as the definitive public source for information about alumni's artistic activities. Additionally, the department will use the alumni registry to select art to be included in exhibitions, publications, and web galleries. Curators, dealers, museum administrators, editors, and other artworld professionals will be encouraged to visit the site frequently to keep in touch with the work of alumni. Participating alumni are encouraged to update files periodically, submitting their latest, most relevant work, which will be added to work that was previously submitted.

No fee is required to join the Registry, but all registrants must have an undergraduate or graduate degree from the UT Austin Department of Art and Art History.

How to Submit Work to the Registry

You may submit up to ten (10) digital files of work, as well as a current resume or curriculum vitae. You must also submit the Registration Form and List of Works, both of which should be downloaded below.

We accept a variety of digital media, but are unable to accept slides or physical documentation of works, such as models, photographs, or printed materials.

There are four steps in the submission process, each of which is described below. You may also download the Submission Guidelines as a PDF. (download adobe reader)

Have Questions or Problems?

We want the submission process to be as easy as possible, and we want you to be able to submit your best work.

If you have questions about preparing your files or submitting them to the Registry, please let us know. We will gladly work with you to accommodate special cases in which your file(s) don't fit within the guidelines above. Just email Carolyn Porter at carolynp@mail.utexas.edu.
