Community Art in Keator Gallery

On November 8, this year’s Community Gallery Show focusing on collaborative collage opened in the Keator Gallery. Between the opening and the last day of the exhibit on December 19, members of the Hopkins community stopped by to contribute to the collages on their own, with a friend, or as part of a class. Arts teacher Jacqueline Labelle-Young described the inspiration behind the exhibit: “I wanted to go with an idea that could pull in any member of the Hopkins community regardless of how they might feel about their art skills. You can walk into the gallery for five minutes, find a chunk of blue, for example, and stick it on the wall in a section that calls for blue and walk out knowing you’ve contributed a small bit to a larger work that could turn out to be quite beautiful.”
