They have a full day starting at 8:30am in the morning, with the bulk of their activities contained in the Working Method Gallery. (MFA's, the work I've seen so far in WMC looks awesome!) A 2-hour tour of CAB facilities will start at 1:30, with our portion running from 2:40 - 3:30pm. While I will be leading it, they do not want to hear from me the entire time. My hope is to have students, faculty, and staff to be present in spaces to showcase what they are up to and to answer any questions. I'll be reaching out to specific individuals to ensure I have the help I need to represent their areas well. Still, the goal is to show our spaces as active and well cared for. If you are able, please be around and working! The council are all art lovers, so a combination of completed and in-process works up and around would be appreciated! Thanks so much, and with your help I know that this will be the perfect opportunity to help the council better understand who we are and what we do. If you have any questions please reach out! All Best, Jeff Jeff Beekman Associate Professor, Department Chair Department of Art Florida State University 405.650.9276 (cell) [cid:72539939-8c2d-49fd-8cae-854c338a4222] Book time to meet with me -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We were a bit delayed in getting started on Friday due to the other units running over, but all the aspects we were in control of went incredibly well. They (and I) deeply appreciated the quality of the work exhibited and the hospitality extended by all the students, faculty, and staff they had the opportunity to interact with. And quite a few said they were going to make a point to return for the Spring graduating exhibitions. Your efforts really made a difference.
