They are likely discussing or presenting architectural designs or ideas, as there are multiple drawings and blueprints displayed on the wall.

    Eye-level view of a gallery showing contemporary artwork.  The walls are white and covered in numerous framed photographs or prints arranged in a somewhat grid-like pattern. The images appear to be portraits or close-ups of individuals, some holding signs or displaying body art.  Several people are present in the gallery, observing the artwork. One person is wearing headphones, suggesting they are listening to an audio guide or other accompaniment to the exhibit. Others are conversing and examining the pieces more closely. The gallery has a modern, minimalist aesthetic. Some viewers are standing and some appear to be considering the art.

    From gallery-style exhibitions to film screenings, fashion shows and campus takeovers, you’ll have opportunities to present your work publicly and professionally and celebrate it.
