With the start of the new school year, come the opening receptions of three art exhibitions on campus.

The Marywood University Art galleries will host the opening reception for the three exhibits Thursday, September 20, 2018 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. This will take place at the Mahady, Suraci, and Maslow Galleries on the first and second floors of the Shields Center for Visual Arts. This event is family friendly, free, and open to the public.

The exhibits include:

The 2018 Marywood Art Faculty Biennial will be held in the Mahady Gallery, located on the first floor of the Shields Center for Visual Arts. This is a multimedia exhibition of current work by Marywood University’s Department of Visual Arts faculty which shows a diverse range of styles, mediums, and techniques from 25 artist-educators. The exhibit will be on display through Saturday, October 13, 2018.

CONNECT: The College of Arts and Sciences Selects from The Maslow Collection is a celebration of the interconnectivity between all fields in higher education and the recent reformation of the University’s College of Arts and Sciences. A faculty representative from each of the 10 disciplines within the College of Arts and Sciences curates a work from The Maslow Collection into the exhibition, then writes about the artwork’s relationship to their area of study. The CONNECT exhibit is on display through November 2, 2018. The Maslow Gallery is located on the first floor of the Shields Center for Visual Arts.

The Marywood Print Guild will host an exhibit for the 2018 collection of 20 works in the Suraci Gallery, located on the second floor of the Shields Center for Visual Arts. There will be an artist walk-through beginning at 6 p.m. on September 20, 2018 during the opening reception. The Print Guild will be on display through Sunday, October 7, 2018.

These are great opportunities for any student, so make sure to check them out!
