It was a crowded penthouse at The Art Institute of Colorado on Saturday, April 25, when The Review took over the space. Over 70 students traveled from all over the region to have their portfolios reviewed by industry professionals from the Denver metro area. Top portfolios from each session won $1000 scholarships, 2nd Place portfolios won year subscriptions to Skillshare, and Honorable Mention portfolios won $100 gift cards.
Reviewers were blown away with the work by students and mentioned how great the collegiate programs are in this region. It was especially impressive that students traveled from Fort Hayes State University, University of Wyoming, Fort Lewis College, and Colorado Mesa University to compete in the local mix of front range institutions. Each college was represented well and judging was extremely difficult. Below is the list of the top portfolios. Check them out!
