This year, ĢƵ (CWI) faculty from the Studio Arts program, including April VanDeGrift, Goran Fazil, and Eric Mullis will have their work featured in installations throughout the 2025 , taking place across downtown Boise, ID March 26 – March 30. Their work will be featured as part of the “Back Rooms” pop-up installation series tucked into the hidden corners and forgotten edges of the festival.
These liminal spaces, created by collaborative teams of artists, are immersive experiences designed to elicit wonder, grant rest, and baffle on-lookers as they enjoy the extensive programing and live music. “Back Rooms” features experiences crafted by artists Kelly Cox, Eric Mullis, Annette Isham, Becky Blue, April VanDeGrift, and Goran Fazil.
CWI Students enrolled in the Studio Arts capstone course including Jessica Fisher, Dally McEwen, Isabel Dominguez, and Kaleb Belknap have been awarded assistantships through a competitive application process and will be participating in the “Back Rooms” pop-up installation series. Studio Art student Kaleb Belknap is also a featured musician at the fest with his band Ghost Beach.
