Art Exhibit

MARCH 8 - 10, TEMPLETON STUDENT CENTER, STAMM

The 2000 Gender Studies Symposium Art Exhibition will explore issues of gender, poverty, and health through a variety of artistic media. Artwork will come from many corners of our community: Lewis & Clark students, staff, and faculty, as well as artists from the Portland community and beyond. Each artist will bring his or her unique visual voice to these compelling issues.
