COMMUNITY OUTREACH

During the fall and winter quarters, regular “Conversations About Art” are held on Monday afternoons in the school’s gallery. Area professionals from a wide range of art-related fields are invited to discuss their work, offering varied and stimulating presentations. These talks are free and open to the public.

Gallery openings at the beginning of each new exhibit are also open to the public and occasionally include a talk by the exhibiting artist.

Ongoing exhibits are arranged at the Woodrow Wilson Rehabilitation Center for the benefit of the residents.

BSSS seeks opportunities to work with other local organizations to increase the interest in and exposure to the visual arts.
