Elizabeth WaltonThe Smith Gallery, a lively space for contemporary art, presents exhibitions, faculty and student work, and new commissions. Serving as a teaching gallery, students gain hands-on experience in curation, installation, and public programming while connecting art to the broader community.
Our newest gallery, located on the first floor of Wey Hall, features exhibitions of student work throughout the year.
Managing the Looking Glass Gallery was an invaluable experience, giving me the opportunity to work directly with artists and exhibitions. It gave me practical skills and a deeper understanding of the behind-the-scenes work involved in art curation and management, significantly enhancing what I learned in the classroom.
