WOW! Women of Wisconsin Exhibit to Open at Alverno College
August 28, 2015
The Alverno College Art and Cultures Gallery will feature a director's invitation
exhibition called WOW! Women of Wisconsin September 2 through October 2. This exhibition will feature the work of women artists
from all media, including painting, photography, sculpture, metal work, mixed media
and drawing. Located in the brand new Alverno Art and Cultures Gallery, the powerful
exhibit celebrates established and emerging women artists from diverse backgrounds
and the limitless ways in which they express themselves artistically. The gallery
will host an opening reception on September 11 from 4:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. with a champagne
toast at 6:30 p.m. Visitors to the opening reception are encouraged to explore not
just the gallery, but the adjacent, brand new studios for painting, sculpture, ceramics,
print, art therapy, glass and metal. The new studios are part of a $30 million expansion
