History of Art and Architecture

Behind the Scenes at the Gallery

 Five HAA undergraduates are busy putting together the latest exhibit which opens May 9th, it's called Encounters: Art In The City. For more information on the actual exhibit, go here. Here's a little peek behind the closed doors of the gallery:

 

Come inside to see what is going on

From the outside, the University Art Gallery doors may say "CLOSED", but inside it's far from quiet.   Five HAA undergraduates are laboring away to get the artwork from students enrolled at a Pittsburgh Public School ready for the opening.

A lot of preparation needs to be done before the gallery opening on May 9th.   To the left, one of our undergraduates, Joanna Kemp,  is preparing signs for the installations.
