There is a wide variety of artwork on offer from faculty and students, including paintings, photos, prints, greeting cards, decorative and functional ceramics, sculptures, crochet, jewelry, and more!  I noticed prices ranging from $1 to $160, so there's available art at a range of budgets.

Fall 2025 Has Begun at Morningside University!

in , ,

Classes at Morningside University began earlier this week; I always enjoy meeting new students and look forward to catching up with returning ones!

This fall, I am teaching ART 103 Design, ART 210 Graphic Design I, ART 402 Advanced Studies in Art History, and ART 470 Graphic Design Internship.

As Morningside’s galleries director, I scheduled an art sale to open up our fall season in Eppley Art Gallery! I will be selling prints and ceramics, and I look forward to seeing what else other members of our community offer. It will open on Thursday, August 28th and run through Friday, September 5th on weekdays.

Sales times are a bit up in the air as it depends on when I can hire students for shifts, but should be some subset of 1-5pm. Please stop by if you’re interested, and note that we only take cash or check.

Come Check Out the 2022 Morningside Art Sale!

in , ,

As a part of my service to Morningside University, I am the director of the Eppley and Helen Levitt Art Galleries. I scheduled a faculty show, a guest artist show, and a senior thesis show for this fall, but there was a small window of time left over that wasn’t big enough for another exhibition… so I decided to hold an art sale!

Anyone from Morningside’s community - faculty, staff, students, or alumni - was invited to sell their arts and crafts, as long as they donate a minimum of 15% of their sales to one of our three art-focused clubs on campus: Art Club, Photo Club, or the Morningside Student Advertising Agency (MSAA). I asked one of our work study students, Su Montoya Alvis, to design the poster for this event (pictured right).

The sale opened on Monday, October 31st, and runs on weekdays from 1-5pm in Eppley Art Gallery through Friday, November 18th, 2022. It’s open to the public, so please feel free to stop in and check out all of the goods on offer! I myself put in matted 8x10”, 10x10”, 11x14” reproductions and photos, 5x5” greeting cards, and a variety of ceramics. A wide variety of arts and crafts are available from others, including ceramics, crochet, drawings, fiber arts, graphic design prints and stickers, jewelry, mixed media, paintings, photography, and printmaking.

Below are a few photos focusing on my section of the sale, but there is much more to browse!
