The exhibit will feature work of the department of text and image faculty and will be on display through Dec. 5, 2014.

“It shows current students what we do professionally,” states Andrews. “It is important for them to realize that we continue to work in the field not only because it keeps us up-to-date with current trends but also because we are passionate about the subjects and mediums that we teach.”
