About the Exhibition

This exhibition is the product of a semester-long course, ART 327-Collections and Exhibitions, taught by Professor Catherine Walsh. During the course, students learned about exhibition planning and design practices, conceptualized exhibition themes, prepared exhibition proposals, created digital exhibitions, and collaborated to curate the physical exhibition that is archived on this site. Students worked in teams to photograph artworks, write exhibition text, create an exhibition website and marketing materials, execute exhibition design, and to install the artworks.

Virginia Barnes: Connected was curated, designed, and organized by: Katharine Armbrester, Elizabeth Byrd, Bayleigh Coleman, Kayley Cook, Samantha Ellis, Zac Evans, Kayla Gough, Morgan MacDonald, Hannah Martin, Alyssa McCain, Breezi Overby, Sabrina Pearson-Adams, Cherish Roodhouse, Katie Sherrill, Patti Sippola, and Brenna Smith.
