Gallery Features Graphic Design at TCC

Tacoma Community College has a little-known secret: a gallery, open to the public, with quarterly rotating features.

I'm convinced some folks still don't know about this little nugget of artistic goodness. I frequent it, and more often than not, I'm certain I can hear my breathing echo through the building.

Here's a tip - visit it. I promise the gallery is worth the short excursion.

This quarter's feature, which runs until Dec. 9, is a Graphic Design Exhibition. Jennifer Olson-Rudenko, gallery coordinator, coordinated this show specifically for arts majors considering the graphic design fields with focus on the graphic design process from start to finish.

Designers displaying work in the exhibition:

•  John-Paul Avila

•  Mark Beagley

•  Anthony Culanag

•  Margaret Doty-Towey

•  Heather Kern

•  Julia Larson-Saperstein

•  Jenny Peterson Roholt

•  Jose Rico

•  TCC MC&O department

•  Jill Wilger

•  Wanda Williams

A reception is scheduled from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., tonight. It should give visitors the opportunity to mix and mingle with some of the artists while enjoying some light refreshments. The Gallery is located in Building 4, most easily accessible from the 12th Street side of campus. Parking is available.

The Gallery is open 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Admission is free and open to the public. A donation box is present if you feel compelled.
