Join us from this special event as we celebrate the opening of two new exhibitions: Founded in Friendship: The Legacy of the Andrew J. Kelly Collection and A Short Season: The Childhood Depicted .
The evening will begin with a special Members Only Gallery Talk by Ann Sievers at 5:30 p.m. This event will be a Be a Friend/Bring a Friend event. Members who attend the Preview will receive an entry to win a door prize. If a member brings a non-member friend to the event, the friend will also be entered into the drawing and the member will receive an additional entry.
At 6:00 p.m. the exhibition will open to everyone and anyone signing up for a new Art Gallery Membership will be eligible for a second door prize drawing.
The Andrew J. Kelly Collection and its legacy, the permanent collection of Saint Joseph College Art Gallery, were decisively shaped by the Reverend Kelly’s friendships with artists and other collectors. Help us continue this legacy by becoming a member of Friends of Saint Joseph Art Gallery. For more information contact Rochelle L. R. Oakley at 860.231.5743 or roakley@sjc.edu.
