WINTER ART SHOW a great success
Wednesday, January 14th, 2009The enthusiastic responses by students, staff and visitors has been gratefully received. The exhibit included many types of art works created by Vanier art students.
Paintings, drawings, illustrations, sculptures, computer graphics and photography were presented. Quality and variety were noted by many. Our annual, year end show will take place the beginning of June. We’ll be sure to let you know exactly when and where to view the work. Due to the successes of our recent exhibits and requests from numerous people, we plan on adding another day to the show!
