UW faculty members conduct gallery walk-through March 7 for show at UW Art Museum

Faculty members will discuss their art work during a gallery walk-through at 6 p.m. Monday, March 7, at the University of Wyoming Art Museum in Laramie.

Presented every three years, the UW Art Department Faculty Exhibition includes installation, painting, printmaking, graphic design, sculpture, small metals and drawings.

This year's exhibition includes work by Nathan Abel, Diana Baumbach, Ashley Hope Carlisle, Leah Hardy, Margaret Hayden, Ricki Klages, David Jones, Patrick Kikut, Jessica Perry, Mark Ritchie, Doug Russell, Shelby Shadwell and Jenny Venn.

The walk-though will be followed at 7 p.m. by a faculty 20:20 event, which allows UW and Laramie County Community College faculty members from any discipline to show 20 slides of their work for 20 seconds each.

The walk-through and 20:20 event are both free and open to the public.

"Imagine learning from the masters" is a guiding principle of the UW Art Museum's programs. Located in the Centennial Complex at 2111 Willett Dr. in Laramie, the museum is open Mondays through Saturdays from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Admission is free.
