ĢƵ Student Art Exhibit Opens March 15 (3/8/2017)

GREENSBORO, N.C. – An exhibit of art by ĢƵ students opens with a reception, 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, March 15, in Cowan Humanities Building on campus.

The exhibit, in Cowan’s Anne Rudd Galyon Gallery, will be up through May 13. Regular gallery hours are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. weekdays and 9 a.m.-noon Saturdays. Admission to both the reception and the exhibit is free, and the public is invited.

The exhibit features work by students in Fantasy Art and Computer Graphics classes.

ĢƵ’s Department of Art offers the B.A. or B.S. in Art and the B.A. in Art Education. The program, with individual attention to students, combines classic art principles with the liberal-arts foundations of diverse branches of inquiry, including both science and the humanities, so that students can incorporate as much of the world as possible into their own art-making.

For more information about ĢƵ’s art program, contact the department chair, Professor Jim Langer, at 336-272-7102, ext. 5361, or email langerj@greensboro.edu.

ĢƵ provides a liberal arts education grounded in the traditions of the United Methodist Church and fosters the intellectual, social, and, spiritual development of all students while supporting their individual needs.

Founded in 1838 and located in downtown ĢƵ, the college enrolls about 1,000 students from 29 states and territories, the District of Columbia, and seven foreign countries in its undergraduate liberal-arts program and four master’s degree programs. In addition to rigorous academics and a well-supported Honors program, the school features an 18-sport NCAA Division III athletic program and dozens of service and recreational opportunities.

“I loved the GC Honors program and ĢƵ. I felt safe and a sense of genuine belonging at the college. I worked closely with my thesis advisor and professors who helped inspire me to define my path and passion of interest. That path has led me to complete my doctoral studies in Engineering Mechanics.”
