Twenty-six faculty and staff members from the Department of Art and Art History will show their work in a variety of media in the “Faculty and Staff Exhibition,” opening Jan. 21 at the Eisentrager-Howard Gallery in Richards Hall.

The exhibition continues through Feb. 6 and will conclude with a First Friday closing reception on Feb. 6 from 5-7 p.m. in the gallery.

“I don’t think we’ve ever had a time in the history of this department when we’ve had so many accomplished artists working here,” said Pete Pinnell, professor and chair of the Department of Art and Art History. “What’s fun is that these artists include not just our full-time faculty, but also our part-time faculty and the staff members who make this department run. From top to bottom, this department is filled with exciting artists working in an incredibly wide array of mediums. I know that this will result in a fantastic show.”
