Pix from Homecoming Reception—Friday 2:15 in the Cochenour

Thanks to everyone who joined us today. Here's a few photos from our event. 



Homecoming Reception—Friday 2:15 in the Cochenour


Organized by my Fall 2013 Curatorial Studies course, this year's Archives show features an accurate history of Homecoming since its introduction in 1923, the evolution of Songfest, a tribute to an individual who embodied the “Spirit of Homecoming,” Coach L.E. “Brad” Jones, and many artifacts that date back to the youngest days of the College.
“90 Years & Counting: Homecoming Through the Ages” offers a glimpse into the past and present and invites you to share your memories with us.

Please join us on Friday, October 11th from 2:15-3:15 for the reception and discussion with the students who researched and created this exhibition: Steven Faulkner, Caity Hagan, Sarai Kidd, Abigail McPeek, Shelby Riddell, Joey Schulte, and Kendall Wills.

Homecoming Show—almost there!

Our beloved bench! Thanks to our friends who made it possible *>) 
We did it (sort of!). A good portion of the Homecoming exhibit is now installed. Yet, several finishing touches, including vinyl and photos need to be completed. Stop by the Cochenour Gallery in the LRC to see the exhibit and please join us for the official reception for our exhibition, "90 Years and Counting: Homecoming Through the Ages." That event will be held on Homecoming Friday, October 10 from 2:15-3:15.

On Monday, the Curatorial Studies class moves on to Project #2—the extended captions for the GC Historical Markers. More info to come!
