“The exhibition participants are studio artists and graphic designers,” said Dick Goody, director of the Oakland University Art Gallery. “There are just over 50 works, including painting, sculpture, prints and photography.”
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, only 10 people will be allowed in the exhibition space at a time.
“We’re also having some new web pages created, which will include a 360-degree virtual tour, and as much information on the artists as you’d see in the gallery,” Goody said.
The Oakland University Art Gallery is open from noon to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday, from September through May.
