GVSU faculty art exhibition to also feature workshops, talks and performances

A unified faculty art exhibition by Grand Valley's Department of Visual and Media Arts will also feature a full slate of workshops, talks and performances.

The show, "Endless Possibilities," displays work from nearly 30 artists at the NOMAD Gallery in downtown Grand Rapids. The show runs through Oct. 31 at the gallery, 74 Monroe Center NW.

Kim Roberts, department chair and professor of film and video production, said organizers wanted to use the opportunity to hold art-related events to engage the community and showcase performers from the Department of Music, Theatre and Dance.

Events include a panel discussion featuring Karen Trentelman, a senior scientist at the Getty Conservation Institute, who will discuss scientific analysis of works of art, as well as workshops to stoke imaginations and musical, theatrical and dance performances.

All events are free and open to the public. For more information visit gvsu.edu/vma.
