The lecture will be presented by Shannon Egan, Ph. D., Director of the Schmucker Art Gallery at Gettysburg College.

Arnold Art Gallery is recognized as one of the region's foremost spaces in which to experience the achievements of internationally renowned artists and art movements of yesterday and today. Housed in a former church in the medieval-revival style, the Gallery is host to five to six exhibitions a year, with loans from major national and regional art museums, galleries, and collectors.
The lecture is open to the public and is free. The Zimmerman Recital Hall is a part of the Suzanne H. Arnold Gallery space. This is an opportunity to view the exhibit is you have not yet done so, or to see it again and gain additional insight into the work of this icon of American photography.
DOSHI Gallery
Art is an Entrée, not a Dessert
DOSHI Gallery
State Museum of Pennsylvania
February 12 - July 15th, 2012
The DOSHI Gallery at The State Museum of Pennsylvania, a Project of the Susquehanna Art Museum features 33 artworks from 20 regional established and emerging artists. In celebration of the DOSHI Gallery's 40th anniversary, this exhibit was inspired by the powerful role art plays in our lives and the importance of the masses it inspires in a plethora of ways.
Artists responded to the following description: Art has the power to transform communities, individuals and the world. Art has healing power. Art has value beyond what money can buy. Art has been carried forward after the death of civilizations. Art is not a luxury, just ancillary to life on this planet - it is nourishment for the soul and for the community. Art must be thought of as an entree, not a dessert.
The State Museum of Pennsylvania is located at 300 North Third Street in Harrisburg. The State Museum of Pennsylvania is open Wednesday-Saturday 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. and Sunday noon to 5 p.m.
