Art Exhibition at the Texas Tech International Cultural Center
Texas Tech International Affairs invites submissions from Texas Tech Fulbright alumni across the TTU System for TTU Fulbright Network: The Ripple Effect, an exhibition exploring how Fulbright experiences foster lasting relationships, professional partnerships, and international collaboration.
A Fulbright experience is more than a research or educational exchange. It is an opportunity to build connections that continue long after the grant has ended. Through shared experiences, participants develop friendships, expand professional networks, and create partnerships that often lead to future research, teaching, and cultural exchange.
The Ripple Effect highlights the people, experiences, and relationships that define the Fulbright journey and the lasting impact those connections have on individuals, institutions, and communities around the world.
We invite Fulbright alumni from across the Texas Tech University System to submit photographs, artwork, and visual stories that capture the moments, friendships, collaborations, and experiences that reflect the enduring impact of their Fulbright experience.
Subject Matter
Please submit up to four (4) high-resolution photographs (up to two will be selected for exhibition) that capture the people, relationships, and experiences that made your Fulbright journey meaningful. Images may include friendships, cultural experiences, shared meals, collaborative projects, memorable places, or other moments that reflect the lasting impact of your Fulbright experience.
Please include a narrative of up to 250 words describing the story behind your photographs. Selected narratives will be displayed alongside the images in the exhibition.
Disclaimer: Texas Tech International Affairs reserves the right to edit submitted narratives for length, clarity, grammar, and exhibition formatting while preserving the author's intended meaning.
