Opening Lecture with the collector, Jordan Schnitzer:  4:30 p.m., Carlson Theater

Reception in the Bellevue College Gallery Space:  4 – 8 p.m., Room D271

“I would like to invite all faculty and staff to participate in the opening events of this exhibit featuring works of art from some of the most prominent African American artists from the past 40 years.  Included are: Kara Walker, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Romare Bearden, Jacob Lawrence, Lorna Simpson and many more.  I also hope some of you will consider building a classroom activity or assignment that takes advantage of having these works of art on campus.

I am more than happy to offer class tours of the exhibit as well.  Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or if you would like a PDF of all works to be included.”
