Bristol Community College
Art and Design Faculty Exhibition 2023
November 2–December 15, 2023 The gallery closes 2023 with the return of the Bristol Community College Art and Design Faculty Exhibition. We last had an opportunity to exhibit faculty work in late 2019. The current show features work by Bhen Alan, Maryellen Atkins, David Barnes, Brooke Mullins Doherty, Erik Durant, David Stephan Graves, Kathleen Hancock, Kat Knutsen, and Beth Thomas.
Art and design faculty exhibitions serve a number of purposes. They enrich the educational experience for students. 他们为学生提供了一个平台，让他们见证创造性的过程，并参与创新的想法, and to encourage a deeper commitment to their own arts education. 最终，它们还可以激励每个人拓展自己的艺术才能和创作界限.
Additionally, 艺术和设计学院展览是扩大社区参与的宝贵工具. 同时庆祝艺术在教学和学习环境中的变革力量, they attract audiences from the surrounding communities, including Bristol alumni, and can enhance the college’s role as a culturalbeacon. 他们鼓励学院与公众之间的对话，并支持地区艺术场景.
