Multitalented faculty and staff exhibit artistic creations
From Oct. 24 to Nov. 17, a collection of artworks created by our very own Brandeis faculty and staff will be exhibited at the Spingold Theater. The JustArts Faculty/Staff Art Exhibition, overseen by the Office of the Arts with help from a committee of staff from across the campus, including Jennifer Stern (Fine Arts), Maggie McNeely (University Archives), Jessica Tanny (Communications), Ingrid Pabon (arts engagement, Division of Creative Arts), and Ingrid Schorr (arts engagement, the Office of the Arts). The event gives students a chance to learn a different side of the professors and staff that they interact with on a daily basis.

From Oct. 24 to Nov. 17, the Spingold Theater Center will be hosting the JustArts Faculty/Staff Art Exhibition, where faculty and staff are invited to showcase their artworks.
