Entries were judged by Power Booth, a nationally recognized artist who has had more than 15 solo exhibitions in New York and is represented in many public collections, including the Guggenheim and Hirschhorn Museums. Art engages the deepest experiences of the self, ethics, culture, politics and the sense of the spiritual. Artists take on such aspects of life as an extension of the techniques born of the mediums in which they work. An opening reception and awards ceremony will follow at 1 p.m. in the gallery. Hess Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 1-5 p.m. on weekends.
Admission is free.
The gallery is closed during College holidays and student breaks. The juried exhibit is the centerpiece of the annual Spring Arts Festival at the College, an event organized by students established to promote all aspects of the fine and performing arts at the College. The juried art show was organized by Lou Ellen Schellenberg, assistant professor of art at the College.
