UCM Gallery of Art & Design Presents Summer Exhibition

The University of Central Missouri (UCM) Gallery of Art and Design will host a summer exhibition, “Communication: The Annual Exhibition of Mid-Missouri Artists Inc.,” from July 9 to Aug. 6 in the UCM Art Center.

Mid-Missouri Artists Inc. (MMA) is a regional arts organization that supports artists and promotes the arts. The members meet regularly to discuss art and the business of being an artist. They also exhibit together at least twice yearly, including the annual summer exhibition at the UCM Gallery of Art and Design. This year's exhibition theme is "Communication” with each artist interpreting the theme through a wide range of media, including painting, drawing, photography, mixed media and sculpture. “Communication” will be in the Main Gallery.

 

The public is invited to a reception celebrating the summer exhibition from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 16, in the Art Center. The New Century Dulcimer Ensemble will play during the reception, and refreshments will be served. 

The UCM Gallery of Art and Design is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.  Admission is free and open to the public.
