Exhibit: Echoes —-a mixed-media visual arts exhibit

Sponsorship:  This event is sponsored by the Cultural Arts Coalition

Location: Fletcher Library, west campus

Available: January 18 – March 8, 2013 during normal library hours

Description:
Echoes —-a mixed-media visual arts exhibit—will be displayed at Arizona State University West campus, Fletcher Library (2nd and 3rd floors), January 22 – March 8, 2013. The exhibit features the work of previous South Mountain High School visual arts students and teachers, and artists-in-residence who have all collaborated on community projects.

This exhibit is an “echo” of the SMHS art program (1995 – 2010) and is curated by Marc Arvallo (SMHS class of 2009) and Janet Broyles, SMHS Visual Arts teacher (1992 – 2010). According to Marc, “this exhibit has tapped into each of the participating artists’ lives. Through the process of making art, we are reminded of who we are, where we came from and where we have yet to go. But ultimately this exhibit has shown us how closely connected and united we truly are as students, as artists and as humans.”

An opening reception is scheduled for Thursday, February 7, 2013, 6:00 – 8:00 pm, in the Fletcher Library Conference Room, 4701 Thunderbird Road, Glendale, AZ 85306.

This event is sponsored by the Cultural Arts Coalition. Judy Butzine, co-founder of the Coalition states: “The South Mountain teachers and students have routinely exhibited within our community, and in so doing, have expanded the students’ creativity and have allowed them to visualize the realities of their present and their hopes for the future.” For more Information about the Cultural Arts Coalition, go to: http://www.artsCare.org/cac.intro.shtml
