Art & Design Week is an annual professional development opportunity for students in the School of Art & Design (SOAD). This award-winning event is a collaboration between UW-Stout Career Services and the School of Art and Design to help connect students with employers, design professionals, and alumni. Industry perspective and feedback is invaluable and includes portfolio reviews, panel discussions, and workshops.
In 2026, Art & Design Week will begin on April 6 and end with Portfolio Review Day on April 10.
