Giertz Gallery has announced their 2018-2019 exhibition calendar

This year’s calendar kicks off soon, with the faculty exhibition beginning next week. From the press release:
This year promises to be an exciting exhibition season. Kicking off the fall semester is our annual Art and Design Faculty Exhibition followed by a solo show of paintings by Michigan-based Teresa Dunn. Her large, round paintings tell dramatic stories on island-like stages. Next up is our survey of photography curated by Christopher Schneberger, a photographer and instructor at Columbia College. In the spring, Connecticut artist Leeah Joo will present a series of paintings that explore her experience as a Korean-American immigrant. We wrap up the school year with our highly anticipated student exhibitions featuring work by Parkland art and design students. Finally, join us next summer for a solo exhibition of acclaimed watercolor artist and former Parkland College professor, Don Lake.
See the complete calendar below, and find more details at the Giertz Gallery website.
