Yesterday we welcomed artist Shanequa Benitez at Sarah Lawrence to hold a workshop as part of the SLICE symposium. Afterwards, the SLICE cohort visited the gallery and took a tour of Benitez’s show.
Our current exhibition, But It’s Ours: The Redline Between Poverty and Wealth by Shanequa Benitez is on until April 11th. Make sure to check it out before it closes!
After calling the Heimbold Visual Arts Center home for 15 years, The Barbara Walters Gallery opened in its new permanent home—The Barbara Walters Campus Center—in August 2019. Located on the second floor, the space is rich with natural light and will house exhibits throughout the academic year. The mission of the Barbara Walters Gallery is to promote the arts as well as dialogue around the issues currently engaging our community, including not just our faculty, staff, and students, but also our alums and neighbors. The Barbara Walters Gallery will host three shows each year, and we welcome proposals from all corners of the Sarah Lawrence Community. Please address any questions or ideas to Lyde Sizer, Associate Dean of the College, at deanofcollege@sarahlawrence.edu.
