#ThrowbackThursday to when I attended the opening reception of the Fine Arts Faculty Exhibition Show held inside The Teaching Gallery at HVCC this past November!! I had a great time supporting my Fine Arts professors and friends that were involved in the work that means the most to them; ranging from photography, drawing, painting, mixed media, and sculpture, including these two artistic pop-up camping tents that were in the main lobby of the Administration Building!! Today (3/2/2017), I went back to Teaching Gallery to view the current exhibition show, "So That I Might Speak To You of Your Magnificence" by Sarah Walko, before the show closes on Saturday. It was an interesting exhibition to view! There were so many components to the show that had your eyes looking in all directions to understand the meaning behind Walko's art!! Check out the exhibition while you can and go support local college art galleries as well!! Happy Thursday!! (Tents installed & created by HVCC Fine Arts Professor, Linda Ryder). #ThrowbackThursday, #tbt, #TheTeachingGallery, #HudsonValleyCommunityCollege, #HVCC, #AdministrationBuilding, #TroyNY, #ThursdayNovember32016, #NowThursdayMarch22017, #ArtisticCampingTents, #ArtistInstallation, #InstallationbyLindaRyder, #HVCCFineArtsFacultyExhibitionShow, #OpeningReception, #Tents, #CampingTents, #IPhonePhotography, #EnjoyTroy, #TheSpot518, #ALMFineArtAndPhotography, #IPhone7, #DigitalPhotography2016, #Fall2016, #TheTeachingGalleryAtHVCC, #VikingPride, @hudsonvalleycc , #SupportCollegeArtGalleries, #ThursdayMarch22017, #IPhone7Camera, (at Teaching Gallery @ Hudson Valley Community College)
