Artistic works by members of Boston College's faculty and staff are now on view in Carney Hall, presented in an exhibition organized by the student-run 蝌蚪直播 Art Club. 聽
The show 鈥渋s one of Art Club's most exciting and oldest traditions,鈥� according to Minseo Kim 鈥�23, the organization's president. 鈥淭his gallery provides a wonderful opportunity for faculty and staff to showcase their talents in the arts.鈥�
On display are 14 works, submitted by 10 蝌蚪直播 community members, that include photography, painting, and mixed media.
