SAGEFEST 16 is almost here! Mark your calendars for April 17th, 2026, 3-6pm. 

Join us at Sage Art Center at the University of Rochester for our annual festival of creative shenanigans! This year, we are highlighting connections between Art and STEM.

At the entrance to Sage, explore the studio art senior thesis exhibitions, Pause and Breath by Ellie Hayward, and Alphabet Bakery by Genselle Gonzalez. Next, stop in our sculpture space to see the Art of Science exhibition featuring past winners of the university's Art of Science Competition.

And the fun doesn't stop there! Come enjoy screen printing t-shirts or totes ($3 cash or bring your own shirt/tote... we will use white ink), an art sale, audio design and performance, weaving on a loom, workshops in cyanotypes and eco printing (printing with plants), activities with zines, rubbings, paper art, virtual reality, and MORE!
