Roberts Art Gallery Re-Opening

By Andrew Blakney-Jimenez

The Roberts Art Gallery just re-opened for the 2007-2008 exhibition season coinciding with back to school night. On display in the gallery are pieces done by artists hired by the Works Progress Administration (WPA), a branch of President Roosevelt's New Deal. The work in this exhibit is part of the gallery's permanent collection and is on display until October 19. This nostalgic exhibit is definitely worth a prolonged glance, out of curiosity of the classical technique if nothing else. The Roberts Art Gallery is located on the first floor of the history building and is open during lunch, and tuesdays after school form
3:30 to 7:00 pm.
