Seven Augustana students will be featured in the Figge Art Museum's annual College Invitational Jan. 30-June 6.

A virtual opening reception will begin at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 4. After registering for the reception, guests will receive an email two hours before the program begins, which will include a Zoom link to join the online event.

Art professors from Augustana, Black Hawk College, Clinton Community College, Knox College, Monmouth College, St. Ambrose University, Scott Community College and Western Illinois University selected works from their schools for inclusion.
