The 35th Annual Himmelfarb Art Show!
The Himmelfarb Library is excited to announce the 2023 Annual Art Show!
This event, now in its 35th year, is a chance for artists from the SMHS, GWSPH, and SON to share their work.
The Art Show will run from Monday, April 17 through Thursday, May 11, with an opening reception on the first floor of the library on Monday, April 17, from 4-5:30pm.
We are accepting submissions (up to five per artist) from Monday, March 13 – Friday, April 14 and it’s open to all students, faculty, and staff from SMHS, GWSPH, and SON.
To submit, please bring your artwork to the library’s first floor circulation or reference desk, just past the entry gate.
The Art Show isn’t limited to photographs and paintings either. We accept and display artwork in a variety of mediums - needlepoint, pottery, jewelry, metal craft, and more!
