The University Museum at IUP presents the IUP Art and Design Faculty Triennial 2021, scheduled to open Friday, April 2.
Curt Scheib, dean of the College of Fine Arts, invites visitors to the exhibit: “We are excited to present this exhibition of works by the faculty of the Department of Art and Design at IUP. As teaching artists and designers whose works are seen and experienced by people both nationally and internationally, our faculty serve as mentors to students, helping them to develop their own artistic voice while also fully engaging them as members of a dynamic and creative community.”
Continuing the tradition of showcasing the talent of the faculty, the Department of Art and Design participated in exhibitions at the University Museum in 2015 and 2018.
