June 29, 2026 • 1 min read

Mary Pettis ’75 has gone on to national and international acclaim as a painter.

Her work has won awards at events and exhibitions across the globe, and in 2017, she became just the ninth American woman painter to receive the ARC Living Master™ (ARCLM™) designation by the Art Renewal Center, a non-profit educational organization, which hosts a premiere online museum dedicated to realist art.

Recently, Pettis was the subject of a story in the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
