The School of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of baby直播app at Boulder will hold its first Creative Exhibit by Advanced Advertising Students Dec. 13-27 at the Dairy Center for the Arts.

An opening reception for the exhibit, along with a ceremony for recipients of the One Club scholarship awards, will be held Dec. 13 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the center, 2590 Walnut St. in Boulder.

According to Brett Robbs, associate professor and head of the undergraduate advertising sequence, the exhibit is designed to showcase the high-quality, creative work of graduating seniors in the program. The school plans to hold the event annually.

"This exhibit is a way for us to demonstrate the remarkable creative power of advertising students at CU," Robbs said. "It also provides an opportunity for agency professionals to meet students and review their work and potential as future interns or full-time employees."

The reception and exhibit are open to the public. High school students interested in advertising careers are encouraged to attend.

Four selections in the exhibit will be awarded prizes of $500 each, one for "Best of Show" for a single piece of work and three for portfolios, based on a body of work completed this semester. Advertising professionals from the creative community will judge the exhibits, including Mike Sukle of Sukle Advertising in Denver; Dan Richardson of TDA Advertising & Design in Boulder; and David Stone, free-lance writer.

CU-Boulder students are generating national interest in the advertising program. Last May three students won first place in the print discipline at the One Club聮s Young Creative Professionals advertising competition held in New York City, competing against professional advertising agencies and graduate portfolio schools from around the country. A second CU team received a merit award in the One Club's annual Student Competition.

The success of the program is largely due to the leadership of two TDA Advertising professionals, Jonathan Schoenberg, creative director, and Eric Liebhauser, senior copywriter, who are teaching classes for seniors about the creative process and evaluating their work based on professional standards.

"We are pleased and encouraged with all of the recent student accolades," Liebhauser said. "The exhibit presents a chance for those unfamiliar with the program to see more of the great student work that's been done this year."
