On April 4th and May 4th you have the chance to see some Westmont senior art majors present some of their final work before they leave the college. This art exhibit will feature several different forms of art, including: digital painting, photography, serigraphy, oil painting, sculpture, and assemblages. All of these students have produced very impressive pieces that you don't want to miss out on. The event is free and open to the public and will take place in the Westmont Ridley-Tree Museum of Art from 4-6 pm on April and May 4th.
Hope to see you there!
