Ceramics, sustainable design, painting and drawing, fiber art, interactive media and photography are several of the media represented in this exhibit.
"Art and design faculty have a unique place within academia, as our intellectual research happens in the studio," said Denise Vandeville, dean of the International School of Art and Design. "We invite the public to join us as we celebrate, evaluate and discuss this research."
The results of this faculty creativity, Vandeville added, not only inspire the individual, but also inspire and instruct art and design students.
The Finlandia University Gallery is in the Finnish American Heritage Center, 435 Quincy Street, Hancock. Gallery hours are Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Wednesday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., or by appointment. Please call 906-487-7500 for more information.
